At this point it boots to an '(initramfs)' prompt without the long timeout.
/live.log says (something like):
mount: Mounting root filesystem on /root failed: No such device
/root has nothing in it or mounted on it.
/live/image/live/filesystem.dir/ has what I expect as the 'root'
filesystem (with etc bin lib var dev ... and so forth).
