Personally I=E2=80=99m happier without a carousel.  :-)

Right, this was reported in
<http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=3D20582>.  We=E2=80=99ll add =
a note
in the documentation.

Oh this is weird.

I just tried:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ ./pre-inst-env guix system init -n gnu/system/examples/bare-bones.tmpl /t=
mp
substitute: updating list of substitutes from 'http://hydra.gnu.org'... 100=

   /gnu/store/gv5n9xgwrmddkj6xkvrhsgnq9h28571j-grub.cfg.drv
[...]
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and it shows that grub.cfg is going to be built; grub.cfg.drv does
depend on the background image, and the resulting grub.cfg refers to the
background image as expected.

I guess a fresh install is needed to debug this.

Nice!  The URL of the installation image is wrong though.

Thanks for the feedback, it=E2=80=99s helpful!
