Is it as simple as rm'ing system-N-link from /var/guix/profiles && 'guix
gc'...?

Recreating grub.cfg with 'system reconfigure', at least, would be needed in
order to prevent fubar on trying to boot into non-existent menu
definitions. Still, that will create yet another system profile...

Fun,
Drp

Currently yes.  The plan is to reuse --delete-generations and
--list-generations from ‘guix package’ in ‘guix system’, which would be
more convenient.

Yeah.  When ‘guix system --delete-generations’ is implemented, we can
arrange to have it regenerate grub.cfg such that it does not keep
references to now-deleted generations.
