Yes, two known issues.

- name fuckup. the rsycn version should have been renamed to alpha3 but
  somehow ended being named alpha, when we already had alpha2.

- syslinux fuckup (not grub AFAICT). syslinux tries to boot a vmlinuz
  kernel with an initrd.img file but none of them are present on the
disk, instead there is a vmlinuz-blabla and an initrd-blabla.img. If you
manually point to the right files it boots fine (use TAB to edit the
boot command and mount -o loop the ISO to check the exact file names if
you're curious). I made a broth hook to rename the files when building
the ISO but I did not have time to build a new one (alpha4).
