Hi!
John Darrington <jmd@gnu.org> skribis:

I guess the idea is to have ‘needed-for-boot?’ automatically set for
users who store /gnu or /gnu/store on a separate partition, right?
In ‘%separate-store-os’ in (gnu tests install), it is set explicitly:
(file-systems (cons* (file-system
(device "root-fs")
(title 'label)
(mount-point "/")
(type "ext4"))
(file-system
(device "store-fs")
(title 'label)
(mount-point "/gnu")
(type "ext4")
(needed-for-boot? #t)) ;definitely!
%base-file-systems))
Making it automatic can help though.

The problem is that we need to exclude bind mounts, as done in
‘store-file-system’ in (gnu system).
What about:
(define (file-system-needed-for-boot? fs)
(or (%file-system-needed-for-boot? fs)
(and (string-prefix? (file-system-mount-point fs) (%store-directory))
(not (memq 'bind-mount (file-system-flags fs))))))
?
Thanks,
Ludo’.
