Now that I have GuixSD installed on that machine I don=E2=80=99t have /sys/firmware/efi at all. /sys/firmware contains =E2=80=9Cacpi=E2=80=9D, = =E2=80=9Cdmi=E2=80=9D, and =E2=80=9Cmemmap=E2=80=9D only. The problem occurred when I tried to install GuixSD (after booting from a GuixSD installer USB drive), not when reconfiguring. I don=E2=80=99t hav= e a USB drive with me at the moment, so I cannot check the contents of /sys/firmware in the installer GuixSD now. -- Ricardo GPG: BCA6 89B6 3655 3801 C3C6 2150 197A 5888 235F ACAC https://elephly.net
