Subject: guix system init: failed to get path of `/boot/efi'
Date: Mon, 18 Sep 2017 10:04:05 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5368e2b3-3d1d-b4c7-1c87-a86fc21be8a6@crazy-compilers.com> (raw)

Hi,

For installing a GuixSD in e fresh system I followed the installation
instructions in the manual. As described in the manual, I did set

  (bootloader (bootloader-configuration
                (bootloader grub-efi-bootloader)
                (target "/boot/efi")))

But running

root@gnu ~# ls -d /mnt/boot/efi
/mnt/boot/efi/
root@gnu ~# guix system init /mnt/etc/config.scm /mnt

failed with:

populating '/mnt'...
Installing for x86_64-efi platform.
/gnu/store/…-grub-efi-2.02/sbin/grub-install: error: failed to get
canonical path of `/boot/efi'.

Obviously grub-install is not "chroot"-ing to /mnt.

Is this expected behavior? And what is the correct solution?
