larch 7.1 problem

I AUR installed the larch 7.1,  made a live USB with the 'default' profile.
I booted using the USB. First, I got the problem that '/bin/blkid'  not found.

I solved that by adding the blkid, and the related lib and generated a new larch.img
Re-boot, got pass the '/bin/blkid' issue.
Then, in hook/larch3 stage, I got two errors in the mount ---  'mount: Block device required'
Those should be related to the 'mount -r -o loop -t squashfs ......'

Can anyone help ?

Re: larch 7.1 problem

The 'default' profile is not really a suitable starting point (except perhaps for larchifying an existing system). It just provides a basis on top of which you can add your own packages, etc. However, I'm not sure why you got the problem with blkid ...

You might have more luck starting from one of the other example profiles (e.g. xmini if you would like to try a simple xfce-based system).
