So the bug was much worse and would basically have prevented anyone that has this kind of EFI from using our guided partitioni= ng. >But this means that I=E2=80=99m not sure the fixes you described above wou= ld have helped in my situation. It would have. (I still think that it would be better not to do the silly "parted file system type -> user file system type" dance in the first place but maybe there is a good reason for it. In any case, it should work now) For the record (and for future problems like that), I went and implemented everything we need for fat16: * Creating * Mounting * Parted file system type -> user file system type conversion * Showing that file system type in the GUI When actually that would have been enough: * Parted file system type -> user file system type conversion >Also I would expect to install EFI-based GRUB so if I want to do that from= the GUIX installer (and not, say, boot some other GNU/Linux installer to i= nstall GRUB), I would need to mount the FAT16 partition Yes. --Sig_/VKBunT0ZSStYs=78cr=GbhH Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAEBCAAdFiEEds7GsXJ0tGXALbPZ5xo1VCwwuqUFAlzbDDEACgkQ5xo1VCww uqVW2Af/ZUoPZRGwZT8OqKzMkNqX4/vqBTeCd85UxytTiiC3J0HqTkJVm47Jd2yH 2QvKZn/K694h3QSMn5ISHabUtchHZ/AS+jee52bp1z1yZiGoNFJRpLtOBKvqY6Uj stnq8ji9sJsRA5JemS7rV4dISY1IVpApUjzroX8aXEdxmq9KA7vugv41YjFoE/Kj Y/WvPzbaVuA1uCP7jmGlNCA04IKVVpYGVifGAqEKOER45VeE6JZrB6PSKBKFRtAj YdbN5DMpd5yDEXMtml6jXYF1C4cnoV8HWmnzrsHj2CwIJyIjPZztVzg6LEOmYAWb lKuEHtVok6GfWU/8WqL0NsuFYXxRQg== =GEfK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/VKBunT0ZSStYs=78cr=GbhH--
