My configuration includes the other distro in the grub menu. When I run "sudo guix system delete-generations" the changes to the grub menu drop the other distro with the older system generations of guix. My current work-around for this is to run "guix system reconfigure ..." which includes the boot menu entries specified in the configuration.
