archboot + uefi + t420

Hello everyone,

i'm having a problem installing archboot in uefi mode on my t420 notebook. What I did so far:

* create USB drive with fat32 filesystem and unpack there archboot iso. The system boot from USB - "UEFI only" mode, so far so good. But when it comes to Package Source a choose "CDROM, USBSTICK or OTHER SOURCE" and get first error:

No source media was autodetected, please switch to another VC and manually mount media under /src(...)

no problem, i thought i mounted the usb stick in /src everythink is in place. But then i when i go to next step "Select Packages" i get and the bottom of the screen:

grep: /packages/core-x86_64/pkg/packages.txt No such file or directory

of course installation fails...

* i tried to follow a wiki tutor on creating usb stick https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ar … _ISO_Howto but there is no such folder "/core-x86_64/pkg" on archboot image i downloaded. The md5sum is edf1dafc993e7200f34b178b51f26f89 so image seems to be allright.

what is going on?
