I think there is something funny with the arch install iso. For some reason, I'm getting a failure waiting on the install to be mounted at /run/archiso/bootmnt The strange things is it says: Waiting 30 seconds.... Error: '/dev/disk/by-label/ARCH_201603' device did not show up after 30 seconds. WTF?? 201603, this is the 201610 install medial Sure enough # ls -al /dev/disk/by-label ARCHISO_EFI -> ../../sdb2 ARCH_201610 -> ../../sdb1 Why the hell is it trying to mount 'ARCH_201603' when 'ARCH_201610' is the actual label? I can manually mount /dev/disk/by-label/ARCH_201610 to /run/archiso/bootmnt but I don't know how to make the install continue from that point?? This was with the USB installer. Funny, the arch iso from both 20160903 and 20161001 both fail looking for the 'ARCH_201603' (this was a fresh USB drive too, no prior iso on it) "get a rope... somebody done screwed something up..." -- David C.
