Subject: bug#35722: Filesystem error in the installer
Date: Tue, 14 May 2019 20:20:08 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190514201804.22dd17fd@scratchpost.org> (raw)

Root cause analysis:
(user-partitions (append
(auto-partition disk #:scheme scheme)
(create-special-user-partitions
(disk-partitions disk))))) <---
(define (create-special-user-partitions partitions)
"Return a list with a <user-partition> record describing the ESP partition
found in PARTITIONS, if any."
(filter-map (lambda (partition)
(and (esp-partition? partition)
(partition->user-partition partition))) <----
partitions))
I think create-special-user-partitions and the form above is automatically
trying to keep existing UEFI ESP partitions of the user.
And partition->user-partition failed for (existing) fat16 partitions.
So the fix of adding fat16 was definitely the right one for that specific
file system type.
It should be fine now.
