Hi William,
I got it working. It seemed that I forgot that my e2fsprogs version was
greater then 1.43.
As mentioned in the guide (do'h bangs head against table)
Create the ext4 filesystem:
1. For e2fsprogs < 1.43:
mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdX1
2. For e2fsprogs >= 1.43:
mkfs.ext4 -O ^metadata_csum,^64bit /dev/sdX1
by executing:
mkfs.ext4 -O ^metadata_csum,^64bit /dev/sdX1
I now got Arch linux up and running.
I wanted to thank you for your quick response.
best regards,
Jelle
