No error reported." This message comes from GRUB. Not having read the GRUB docs closely, I assume it refers to the bootloader style ("PC" vs EFI) rather than the CPU architecture. I agree it's a bit misleading, especially to non-technical users. I wonder how it could be improved, however? In the long run, I think we should offer a graphical interface to `guix system`, `guix package`, etc, and in that case non-technical users would never see this message. --St7VIuEGZ6dlpu13 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCAAdFiEEsFFZSPHn08G5gDigJkb6MLrKfwgFAlxI31kACgkQJkb6MLrK fwjfcA/9Hv1DX+mMtISs9NBWXGXsscLNfjNIaEZur3XBYLdvDyEWevx87dhZg/BN t19MLD9hL+6gNLc4TlOwi4FY3oDjYM7mloZQ/07rBePf8s2BKnsOHllKf/L7UCUC k9SnW/ivy4PIn1tiWK7t0cv7hA78pkJvrBT/pmq4XpGPc2Kr+0Jb+SMHhFYf9d9d tTUKvgwe83JAzz/O51NqlCGJY9g9xr+eZPYxRGqXnkVnm+zhVkE7IFciUaHhVZEo erFVCXI4L1TmPfT7P6XNwFKYIwioDx++raUWaUk6R/wdqKKCzgf+z1X2cMShQfw0 A+/xW72inKi/QxG1KUiG37UTvgrrTxlJTrAraBaS0dQ8kh91fHgYGgiK6VgXSkMo 8k/Z7Pb3dIYO0qJmhGqlzZDCReb23TQJc/nIWRAGx7wzp/BKCSZs5ynGAZnc7RSn SE705+h4hrQYMwfqbh5TBZZ2hiOzSB0DJv8phMmKEBVds6JoZL/2MqtBGQiRpSHT 7eQiv11b+tqTmgOCoC2o93GGkjcM3mX5RohdtrBPzbJIWnVqDWxEPN5MiCBv4HZ4 j+K4M0tNTkjNBlZ30Z7/yCrvRs7gGR5v3xhvcrHld+VkpQLLYYljUzaxhP7mCLIt te/fToiSJRXDdfnJttYG5Td++U3MPggWfMiQiu445BiptU3mg/8= =mAUB -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --St7VIuEGZ6dlpu13--
