Subject: bug#45517: Failed boot on arm32 with u-boot due to missing requirements with the distro boot protocol

Hello Denis,

> When we look at the resulting image with fdisk -l we have:
>> Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type
>> guix.img1 2048 83967 81920 40M ef EFI (FAT-12/16/32)
>> guix.img2 83968 3301783 3217816 1.5G 83 Linux
The default image type creates an EFI partition which is not desirable
here. You should try again running this instead:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
guix system disk-image -t arm32-raw lime2.scm
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Thanks,
Mathieu
