So, the kernel command line specifies, that it should search for a "/dev/disk/by-label/LIVE", which apparently does not exist, because the USB stick has LABEL="WALDYD".

So, either you changed the LABEL of the USB stick after using liveusb-creator. Or liveusb-creator is buggy.

Reassigning to liveusb-creator.
