Hi Mathieu,

People apparently start other Linux distributions with it :)

>a more consequent rework.

Uuuh another person hit the boot-parameters usability problem.  Let's get this patchset in and rework it later.

How's the error reporting?  If a user still has boot-parameters in his bootloader configuration menu-entries, will "guix system reconfigure" fail *before* he reboots?  If so, does the error message hint on how to fix it?

LGTM as is.  The user interface is now the same as it had been before (in 0.13.0) - so it's an improvement.

I just checked:  The 0.13.0 release is safe.  Phiew.
