Subject: Guix installation image
Date: Wed, 07 Aug 2019 18:28:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87d0hhueh1.fsf@eta.l7> (raw)

Dear all,

I would really like to install Guix on my Dell XPS 13 (9380) and give Guix a
try not only in VM bur on a my main device. Unfotunately it refuses to
boot the installation image. After selecting the boot device I only see
a nonbliking cursor.

I checked the partition table of the image and was supprised so see:

> sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda
> GPT PMBR size mismatch (2694403 != 4014079) will be corrected by write.
> The backup GPT table is not on the end of the device. This problem will be corrected by write.

is this really how it's supposed to look like?

Cheers,

Alex
