After 'guix system reconfigure' I couldn't boot, because there is no a menu entry in UEFI boot menu. So, I solved this by following Gentoo wiki article=C2=B9. Boot with LiveUSB XUbuntu 16.04. Any distribution that could boot via UEFI and provides efibootmgr app will work. Create new boot menu entry: # efibootmgr -c -d /dev/sda -p 1 -L "GuixSD" -l "\EFI\boot\grubx64.efi" Check created boot menu entry: # efibootmgr -v I have a little question. Does GuixSD overwrite this boot entry with efibootmgr or similar every 'guix system reconfigure'? =C2=B9 https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Efibootmgr Thanks, Oleg.
