After a guix pull on 0fc235a, guix system reconfigure stop at
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
shepherd: Evaluating user expression (let* ((services (map primitive-load (?))) # ?) ?).
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
instead of
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
shepherd: Evaluating user expression (let* ((services (map primitive-load (?))) # ?) ?).
shepherd: Service user-homes has been started.
shepherd: Service term-auto could not be started.
bootloader successfully installed on '/dev/sda’
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
The only change I've done to my config.scm is that now I have a btrfs
filesystem (just for storage, it's not /home).

The “Evaluating user expression” started the ‘file-system’ service for
this btrfs file system, and it got stuck for some reason. Did
/var/log/messages or the console show anything?
I suppose you’d have to try again the experiment. Presumably there’s
some fsck-like process or something taking time or waiting for input.

This is the last message in /var/log/messages:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Aug 29 09:13:40 localhost shepherd[1]: Evaluating user expression (let* ((services (map primitive-load (?))) # ?) ?).
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

What console?

Note that everything works alright. But I'm worried that this would
fail on a new installation where the bootloader is missing :(

/dev/console, so tty1, typically.

Where the bootloader is missing? The bootloader cannot be missing or
the thing is not installed. :-)

No it's not missing, but I think the bootloader remained from the
previous working configs (before I configured the Btrfs file system).
Say I'd wipe the bootloader now and re-run `guix system reconfigure...',
I don't think it would get installed then.

Had you considered the case where someone[1] is running a binary install
on a foreign distro booted by refind or a bootloader not in your official list?
[1] guess who ;-)

I hadn’t! If that’s the case, it’ll be more difficult for us to support
that someone. :-)
