Cant get Archlinux to boot from systemd-boot

Hello everyone,

I am trying to dual boot with Arch, I tried to install once but realized I did not have enought space on EFI. So I re-did it again following this. However when I reboot it tells me that it could not find "new_root" and puts me in emergency mode. I checked all my configuration and everything seems in order. Only thing I could find was "bootctl status" not showing any current boot loader(it shows Product as n/a). I couldn't find anything on google myself. Any help would be appreciated!

A complete list of the full commands used to install the system and bootloader would be best, I think.

Guessing games get boring after a while.

Ok I found the problem, I wasnt properly creating the loader configs. The tutorial says to put "options root="LABEL=arch_os" rw" but i did not create a label beforehand. I solved it by using PARTUUID and now it boots into arch linux fine.
