Creation ISO failed

Hi,

I have been trying to experiment with mkisofs command as to build an arch iso.

Here is what I have done

1. copy the live cd content to a separate directory /build (cp -R /mnt/* /build/) where cdrom is mounted to /mnt
2. No modification ported to this directory, no modification added
3. mkisofs -r -l -b boot/grub/stage2_eltorito -uid 0 -gid 0 \
        -input-charset utf-8 \
        -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table \
        -V "test" -o arch-test.iso /build
4. When booting the iso in Virtualbox or Vmware, I get the error "archiso could not be created, falling back to ramfs"
5. In ramfs i do ln -s /dev/sr0 /dev/archiso then exit
6. And the system continues to boot properly

My current goal is to understand what would be the root causes or the /dev/archiso not being created, am I creating the iso wrongly?

Thanks for your inputs.
