at this moment: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=9691
Also mkinitcpio-nfs-utils is required for ipconfig.

Takes the advantage of already symlinks created on /dev/disk/by-label/ by
60-persistent-storage.rules add by udev hook.
Tested on:
* Real machine as CD-ROM and USB key drive.
* KVM as CD-ROM and DISK (for both modes, in combination with IDE and SCSI)
* VirtualBox as IDE CD-ROM.
IMPORTANT note: Since isohybrid is a hack, if more partitions are added to
USB key drive, filesystem on these partitions MUST have LABEL, otherwise
USB key will fail to boot. Anyway there is an option archisodevice=,
to force and specific device where live-media reside.
(Maybe isohybrid will change the hack method used in a future)

Fixes FS#17182: copytoram=y does not work with aufs
The solution is simple, just use a directory outside aufs tree.
* If copytoram=y, then another tmpfs is mounted but on /tmpfs.sqfs
* Add a new option: tmpfs_sqfs_size= (default to 75%)
* Lock cdrom drive is not locked if copytoram=y

* Make first /dev/loop0 device at archiso install hook.
* Remove unneeded losetup, all is done directly via mount.
* Images are now mounted on /tmpfs/mnt/image-name instead of
/tmpfs/mnt/loopN, removing unneeded counter.
* Add some variables to make code more readable.

Next version of mkinitcpio > 0.6.2 implements mount hook functionality.
So can avoid skipping normal flow of main init script, and removing common
end code with it.

USB boot delay is now handled with the usbdelay kernel param (default=0)
We use the built in delay of usb-storage to control this. by setting the
module's delay param. If your USB device doesn't work on first boot, try
setting usbdelay=10 or so
