*** Know issues
** (1) On shutdown lots of messages from systemd like:
"Could not unmount /run/archiso/<ABC>: Device or resource busy"
"Could not delete loopback /dev/loop<N>: Device or resource busy"
This is not a real issue since, all mounted filesystem, loopback devices
and device mapper devices made by archiso will be "free" on "shutdown tmpfs"
(A.K.A deinitramfs), build at initramfs by [archiso_shutdown] initcpio hook.
Proper shutdown is mostly important when persistent is used.
** (2) ISOHYBRID-MBR does boot on some hardware:
Some firmwares (BIOS) gets confused about using this hack
(first partition start at offset 0 -> MBR "infinite recursion").
Solutions:
(a) Do not use this method, instead copy files manually and
setup the bootloader [PC-BIOS (MBR)] (See README.transfer).
(b) Change offset of the partition on the ISO or on the target medium
(if ISO is already dumped):
# isohybrid.pl -offset 1 <ISO-SOURCE>
OR
# isohybrid.pl -offset 1 <DEV-TARGET>
