Hello, Guix help!
Please, look through my short booyloader configuration, will it break my system?
(operating-system (host-name "antelope") (timezone "Europe/Moscow") (locale "en_US.utf8")
(bootloader
(bootloader-configuration (bootloader grub-efi-bootloader)
(target "/boot/efi")
(menu-entries (menu-entry
(label "Ubuntu")
(linux "(hd2,gpt3)/boot/vmlinuz")
(linux-arguments '("root=/dev/sdc3"))
(initrd "(hd2,gpt3)/boot/initrd.img")))))
(file-systems (cons*
(file-system (device "/dev/sda1") (mount-point "/boot/efi") (type "vfat"))
(file-system (device "/dev/sda2") (mount-point "/") (type "ext4"))
%base-file-systems))
...
I just learned how to use GRUB for booting to another OS placed on another SSD in my PC.
And now I want to add another OS to GRUB's configuration, that is holding by Guix.
Could you say, is this config workable?
And also if something goes wrong in my experiments, how to get back to previous workable Grub configuration?
Can I do it with Guix usb stick? Which steps to do for reconfigure my system and "cow-store" from usb stick?

Hello! I got the workable config and placed it here
https://gitgud.io/znavko/guix-configs/-/blob/master/guix-config-dual-boot.scm
and in attach too.
This works!
PS: But the kernel bug rest on my Guix: when switch off PC it stops displaying me CPU registers (attach 2)
I will try to update may be I will have luck.

You will.
Linux 5.9.11 added a bug that crashes on shutdown on UEFI systems.
It's gone again in 5.9.12.
Kind regards,
