Hello! I am trying to install Guix on other notebook. when I've parted it=
 with fdisk using such partitions:=0A/dev/sdb1 50Gb Linux filesystem=0A/d=
ev/sdb2 9Gb Linux swap=0A=0Athen `guix system init /mnt/etc/config.scm /m=
nt` gave the error:=0AEmbedding is not possible. Grub can only be install=
ed in this setup by using blocklists. However blocklists are UnreLIABLE a=
nd their use is discouraged.=0Aguix system: error: failed to install boot=
loader=0A=0AAnd this makes me sense need to do another partitioning like =
this:=0A/dev/sdb1 150Mb BIOS Boot=0A/dev/sdb2 50Gb Linux filesystem=0A/de=
v/sdb3 9Gb Linux swap=0A=0AI cannot do this. I fullfilled this but making=
 filesystem on /dev/sdb2 gives the error, that device is mounted.=0AAs I =
understand this is because of my run 'herd start cow-store /mnt' and also=
 run `guix system init .... /mnt`=0AI've stopped herd service. But do not=
 know what to do else. So I can only reboot and start again.=0A=0APlease =
is there another way to solve?
