The REPL > commands you ran show that your nvme0n1p1 and nvme0n1p6 partitions have > valid UUIDs. Your change seems to have exposed the real (and totally unexpected) problem! For some reason, the installer is trying to get the UUID of a partition on my USB stick that contains the installer. It seems that for some reason the installer has automatically picked a mount point of `/boot/efi' for `/dev/sda2' in addition to the mount points on my actual hard drive. I now see an error dialog saying that it can't retrieve the UUID of /dev/sda2 when I try to proceed past the partitioning page. If I clear the mount point for /dev/sda2, I am now able to proceed to the page to with the generated system configuration! At this point I think I should be able to proceed with making the installation video I was working on, I'll just let viewers know that they may need to clear that mount point if the same thing happens for them. > I'm not sure if you are aware of this feature, but generating > uncompressed ISO9660 image is a serious time saver when debugging the > installer: > > --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- > guix system image -t uncompressed-iso9660 gnu/system/install.scm > --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- I wasn't aware, thanks for letting me know! Creating the image was a lot faster this time :) David
