Have an odd problem, trying to boot an iso from grub2 using

The first menuentry works fine but ArchBang refuses to boot, both are in the same directory on the same disc.
Odd thing is that /dev/disk/by-label is not created in Archbang, both isos have the same hooks loops, tried with latest archiso from git but no joy.
Can anyone shed any light on the problem?
