[Archiso] Unable to boot live archlinux.

Hi everyone,

[Context]

I am using Archiso to make customized liveUSB Archlinux ISO.
As a example, I am using the Releng profile. I have to install 2 more packages (so in package.both file) and need to have a startup script to perform some stuff. To execute the script i am using the

script= myscript.sh 

parameter in efiboot/loader/entries/archiso-x86_64-cd.conf

[Problem]

Anyway, everything worked well until a few days ago.
When builded, archiso created the ISO (as usual) but the live arch doesn't manage to boot and so execute the script ....

It freezes at this point

Tested on lots of computer but nothing ..

Each time we create a new ISO, it build an updated live archlinux. So can this problem be caused by a bad packages update or something like that.

Thanks for help

See this:

We need to wait till device-mapper is moved from testing to core repository.

Welcome to Arch Linux.  Please be aware of our posting standards which I linked in my edit of your post.

At the point of the 'Freeze', can you change to a different console using Ctrl-Alt-F2   (or F3 through F6)?

Oh wow !
Sounds reassuring. So lets wait for some days. When did this bug first appear? Yesterday?

Hope it will be fixed soon. smile

Sorry for this ewaller sad

Yeah, I can change to a different console. But sadly, I am making an automated process with a startup script so I need to log automatically.

Thanks a lot for your answers !

Yes bug appeared about 1 to 3 days back.

Ctrl-alt-f2 to f6 will work.

But there are other issues as reported in thread linked in my post above.
