> Hello fellow Guix folks!=0A> =0A> I'm planning a switch to a Guix syste=
m and have a question i couldn't=0A> answer myself - is it possible to ke=
ep just the grub.cfg instead of full=0A> GRUB install? I'd rather have GR=
UB installed as a payload with Coreboot=0A> and maintain it's configurati=
on with `guix system`, so that the whole=0A> disk could be encrypted.=0A>=
 =0A> I'd appreciate any tips!=0A=0AHello Vasilii!=0A=0AI had this very s=
ame situation, as I am using libreboot which has grub payload. You can us=
e the following code snippet for your "bootloader" part of your system co=
nfiguration. =0A=0A	(bootloader=0A		(bootloader-configuration=0A			(bootl=
oader=0A				(bootloader=0A					(inherit grub-bootloader)=0A					(installe=
r #~(const #t))))))=0A=0AThis will generate and manage "grub.cfg" without=
 installing grub bootloader on your disk. Thanks to Guix Folk, Clement, w=
ho helped me with that code.=0A=0ARegards,=0ARG.
