Hi there,
I am trying to install Guix System 1.3.0 on an Asus ZenBook UX305 using
the wizard.
After the partitioning I get the error in the attached screen shot.
( mount "/dev/sda1" on "mnt/boot/ef" : No such device)
I had Linux installed already on this computer and would not need to
re-partition.
Any ideas how to fix this?
Thx & regards,
Matthias

what does this output?
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ ls /dev/disk/by-id/*|xargs file
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Maybe you have nve disk that does not get translated to /dev/sdaX ?
If you have linux running, try
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ lsblk -f
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Maybe you will see something like
nvme0n1
├─nvme0n1p1 ...
└─nvme0n1p2 ...
which would suggest that your
/dev/sda1
maybe should be
/dev/nvme0n1p1
but in general, IMO device references without unique id's are bloody feet waiting to happen.
I would suggest looking at uuid's for file systems, partitions, or devices,
such as you can view with lsblk

Hi Bengt,
here is what I get ( now under MX linux on the same box ).
$ ls /dev/disk/by-id/*|xargs file

$ lsblk -f

To me it looks quite standard?
Thx & regards.

Thanks for the report. This should be fixed with:
245cab2abc1fd74d1df489e500432c66c88f6b25. The issue was that the
installer could not mount FAT16 partitions.
Could you regenerate an installation image by running the following
command:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
./pre-inst-env guix system image -t uncompressed-iso9660 gnu/system/install.scm
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
and confirm that it fixes your issue?
Thanks,
Mathieu

Hello Mathieu,
thanks for you help.
I built the iso from commit 245cab2abc1fd74d1df489e500432c66c88f6b25 and
confirm that the partitioning works now.
Only need to figure out how to get my wifi running and soon I'll be
booting ;-)
Best regards,
Matthias

That's great to hear, thanks for testing! Regarding Wifi support, you
can have a look to:

Closing this one,
Thanks,
Mathieu
