Have an odd problem, trying to boot an iso from grub2 using

menuentry "ArchBang" {
     set isofile="/iso/archbang-2012.07.26-x86_64.iso"
     loopback loop (hd0,1)$isofile

img_dev=/dev/sda1  img_loop=$isofile  earlymodules=loop
     initrd (loop)/arch/boot/x86_64/archiso.img
}

The first menuentry works fine but ArchBang refuses to boot, both are
in the same directory on the same disc.

Odd thing is that /dev/disk/by-label is not created in Archbang, both
isos have the same hooks loops, tried with latest archiso from git but
no joy.

Can anyone shed any light on the problem?
