Thanks Heiko! That bug contains the same error message, but not sure it's for the same reason. /dev/sr0 doesn't appear either for me. For clarity, is /dev/disk/by-label/MY_LABEL supposed to point to my installation CD, so isomounts can be loaded? Is that what this is trying to do? I did get a ramfs prompt, but "udevadm trigger" does not seem to affect /dev for me :( -tommed On Fri, Apr 8, 2011 at 12:00 PM, Heiko Baums <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Am Fri, 8 Apr 2011 11:42:25 +0100 > schrieb Tom medhurst <tom.medhurst@xxxxxxxxx>: > > > I'm attempting to create my own Arch Live CD and I can't get the > > archiso hook to complete successfully. > > > > In March 2010, Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi removed the archiso_early hook > > from archiso.git, which used to mount /dev/archiso (I'm not entirely > > sure what this pointed to, but it's clearly required).
