Have an odd problem, trying to boot an iso from grub2 using
menuentry "Archlinux-2011.08.19-netinstall-x86_64.iso" {
set isofile="/iso/archlinux-2012.07.15-netinstall-dual.iso"
loopback loop (hd0,1)$isofile
linux (loop)/arch/boot/x86_64/vmlinuz archisolabel=ARCH_201207
img_dev=/dev/sda1 img_loop=$isofile earlymodules=loop
initrd (loop)/arch/boot/x86_64/archiso.img
}
menuentry "ArchBang" {
set isofile="/iso/archbang-2012.07.26-x86_64.iso"
loopback loop (hd0,1)$isofile
linux (loop)/arch/boot/x86_64/vmlinuz archisolabel=ARCHBANG
img_dev=/dev/sda1 img_loop=$isofile earlymodules=loop
initrd (loop)/arch/boot/x86_64/archiso.img
}
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?
