ERROR: /dev/archiso found but the filesystem type is unkown

My problem is now solved in the previous thread on this topic.  I apologize for a double post!  The previous topic was marked [Solved] and I assumed no one would respond there.

I had the problem trying to boot from usb: boot device not showing up after 30 seconds and thrown into ramfs$.  The other topic w/ this problem is marked solved so I'm posting my problem again (sorry).

cat /proc/scsi/scsi shows that device is detected...

did:
ln -sf /dev/sdb1 /dev/archiso
and logged out ("exit")

but immediately a new error, and kernel panic, so I can't copy/paste output:
"ERROR: /dev/archiso found but the filesystem type is unkown"

Sorry about ridiculous pic but it does show kernel panic, just trying to help... couldn't copy output.  I can post dmesg from prior to kernel panic if you want (but it doesn't include errors).

Thank you for your help.

I just did:

cat /lib/udev/rules.d/00-archiso-device.rules
ACTION=="add|change", SUBSYSTEM=="block", IMPORT{program}="vol_id --export $tempnode"
ENV{ID_FS_LABEL_ENC}=="ARCHISO_OINGAE2I", SYMLINK+="archiso"

"SYMLINK+=" ... is "+=" typo?
