Hi, and sorry for the late reply!
dt <dtluna@openmailbox.org> skribis:

Use a device label, as suggested at:
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Preparing-for-Installation.html#Disk-Partitioning
The config file you posted does use partition labels, as in:
(file-system
(title 'label)
(device "root")
…)
Could it be that the partitions actually carry a different label? You
can check that by running ‘e2label /dev/sdX’.
HTH!
Ludo’.
