I can't boot with Persistant in Arch

I created the file "Persistence_ext4_512MB_VTOYCOW.DAT" for arcoplasma, connected it via Plugson, boot into Ventoy, chose to boot with Persistant, but in response I get an error

Does it boot without persistence?

Which exact ISO?

Legacy/BIOS boot or UEFI boot?

Does the ISO boot via E2B or agFM menu system?

For Ventoy issues, check the Ventoy website http://www.ventoy.net and their forum

Yes, in the usual mode ISO loads without problems.

Arcoplasma-V25.01.01-X86_64.iso

UEFI Boot.

First, I’m booting in E2b UEFI, then choose Ventoy in it.

Yes, there they simply did not activate the account after registration, so I wrote here.

I cannot boot that ISO using Ventoy UEFI64  Virtual Box (no persistence) Normal boot option - I get same error as you.

It does boot using Ventoy UEFI64 boot if I choose 'grub' boot option however.

Ventoy + persistence will use 'normal' mode, so that too will fail if using Ventoy.

So it is a problem with Ventoy and that ISO, not really a persistence problem.

You would need to reproduce the issue using a Ventoy USB drive (not an E2B+Ventoy for E2B drive) and report issue to Ventoy github (if not already reported).
