I've tried this several times and I've received the same error every time.
Code:
:: Mounting '/dev/disk/by-label/ARCH_201602' to 'run/archiso/bootmnt'
Waiting 30 seconds for device /dev/disk/by-label/ARCH_201602 ...
ERROR: '/dev/disk/by-label/ARCH_201602' device did not show up after 30 seconds...
Falling back to interactive prompt
You can try to fix the problem manually, log out when you are finished
sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
I get this error every time, maybe even in a different format or with a different problem.
I've tried renaming my drives to ARCH_201602 and that didn't help either (It was the recommended solution). Any suggestions/help? This may be a horrible place to ask, but I said earlier I was going to attempt to install it again xD

Edit: My method I usually use to install is going into VBOX and installing Arch to my hard drive from there. Perhaps there is something different I should try? I would try unetbootin, but I don't want to risk accidentally deleting my main hard drive

    SylverReZ @ SylverReZ: Also nice. Never really watched Fallout on Prime, but sounds like a good show. +1
