fstype from klibc don't detect a vfat formatted blockdevice when try to
mount /dev/archiso to /bootmnt. Some users don't use the recommened
method with dd to bring the image to their USB stick. If they for ex.
use Unetbootin to put the iso image on their (v)fat formatted stick they
got lost with a kernel panic cause fstype won't detect vfat, so the
mount and the later squashfs bindings traps.

Missing slash caused bootmnt to be bound to /real_rootbootmnt
instead of /real_root/bootmnt

If the archisolabel= option is specified on the kernel commandline,
a device /dev/archiso will be created and will be used to boot the
live system.

This should give us *just a bit* more delay before actually trying to do
things with the usb devices. Annoying, but will probably be effective

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

It seems udev trigger/settle doesn't do what we expect,
so we'll add functionality for the rootdelay param back
in here.
This should help fix FS#12896

This is a hacky way to mount squashfs images at directories
other than the root. We mount the image to a loop device
and then bind it to another directory.
This technically supersedes the 'bind' image type, so that
should be removed...

This prevents some cosmetic errors when globbing fails
and the scripts try to mount something silly like "/dev/hd[a-z]"

Take away redirects so error messages are
readable, and wait to make sure udev creates
the loopback devices before we try to use them.
