I'm considering to install GuixSD in a virtual machine made with Gnome Boxes
I should partition the disk but I don't know where to start
This is what I find in cfdisk

I don't understand how these partitions are organized
Why is the boot partition so large ? Will it expand even more if so
required ?
As for /dev/sda2 why is it so small ? Why is it FAT ? What does that ""EFI"
mean ? What is that partition meant for ?
As for the free space, why is it so small ? Will it expand if so required ?
How am I supposed to properly arrange these partitions in order to install
GixSD ?
