larch-4 create live CD successful, but faild during boot

Hi, I followed http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=38077&p=1 message to create my own live cd successfully. However, when I use this mylivecd.iso to boot the machine. I got the error message.

"Root device '/dev/loop0' desn't exist, attempting to create it
ERROR: Failed to parse block device name for '/dev/loop0'
ERROR: Unable to create/detect root device '/dev/loop0'
Dropping to a recovery shell... type 'exit' to reboot
NOTE: klibc contains no 'ls' binary, user 'echo *' instead

If the device '/dev/loop0' gets created while your are here, try adding 'rootdelay=8' or higher to the kernel command-line

Could someone help this? Thanks

Re: larch-4 create live CD successful, but faild during boot

Please don't use larch-4, it's rather old now and would probably need quite a few changes to work with current kernels, etc. You can get larch-5 from the address below.
