I cannot check right now if that is a legitimate partition id for the i686 installer, but the installer source code in gnu/system/install.scm should mount a partition with (file-system-label "Guix_image"). You could check from another OS if this partition label exists. You could also type in the recovery Guile repl that opens: (use-modules (ice-9 ftw)) (scandir "/dev/disk/by-id") (scandir "/dev/disk/by-uuid") (scandir "/dev/disk/by-partuuid") and maybe: ,L bournish cat /run/booted-system/etc/fstab Regards, Florian
