I am dropped into an emergency shell saying the root device was not found. I checked the PartUUID of the root partition and made sure it matches in the loader configuration (systemd-boot).
Strangely, blkid is unable to find the boot device on recovery shell. I'm not sure what the problem is. I've tried specifying it with LABEL, UUID and PARTLABEL to no avail.
The install medium is a dd clone of another device with a functioning arch/windows dual install.

I've tried that too. same result
have you tried mounting from the emergency shell and running ctrl d
versed moon
So, in the emergency shell, I can't even see the device. lsblk or blkid don't list the device/partition I'm looking for.
But, I can see and mount it from a live boot.

but does /dev/sda1 or whatever it'd be exist
versed moon
It doesn't show up in the emergency shell. So, I can't mount it.
I tried changing the PARTUUID of the partitions and updated in the loader entry config. Also, reinstalled systemd-boot with no luck.

It is a clone of dual boot setup on another drive. I can boot into Windows just fine on the new device too.
But arch isn't playing nicely
versed moon
Okay, I'll try and update in a moment.

can you check the UUID or PARTUUID on the fstab if it matches?
from chroot
versed moon
It does.
if the root partition itself is not found, does it make a difference what's in the fstab. I guess I don't understand fully the boot procedure, but it doesn't make sense why we'd put mount instruction for root in the fstab, which in a file in the root partition.
