Subject: Adding new entry to GRUB for another OS on the third drive and turning system back to work?
Date: Fri, 04 Dec 2020 18:09:20 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <847e0efa3b7192cbb414c2f9fb830127@disroot.org> (raw)

Hello, Guix help!
Please, look through my short booyloader configuration, will it break my system?
(operating-system (host-name "antelope") (timezone "Europe/Moscow") (locale "en_US.utf8")
 (bootloader
 (bootloader-configuration (bootloader grub-efi-bootloader)
 (target "/boot/efi")
 (menu-entries (menu-entry
 (label "Ubuntu")
 (linux "(hd2,gpt3)/boot/vmlinuz")
 (linux-arguments '("root=/dev/sdc3"))
 (initrd "(hd2,gpt3)/boot/initrd.img")))))
 (file-systems (cons*
 (file-system (device "/dev/sda1") (mount-point "/boot/efi") (type "vfat"))
 (file-system (device "/dev/sda2") (mount-point "/") (type "ext4"))
 %base-file-systems))
...
I just learned how to use GRUB for booting to another OS placed on another SSD in my PC.
And now I want to add another OS to GRUB's configuration, that is holding by Guix.

Could you say, is this config workable?

And also if something goes wrong in my experiments, how to get back to previous workable Grub configuration?
Can I do it with Guix usb stick? Which steps to do for reconfigure my system and "cow-store" from usb stick?
