Sorry for the delay. It's really awesome that you've work so hard to
fix the issue I reported. I really appreciate it!
I tried it with:
(file-system
(title 'uuid)
(device (uuid "72E5-26A0" 'fat))
(mount-point "/boot/efi")
(type "vfat"))
And it works. These changes look good to me.
Thanks again,
Roel Janssen
