I am looking for some advice.
I'm am setting up a libreboot + whole disk encryption + guixsd laptop.
Libreboot has grub in the BIOS, which allows for encrypting the whole disk.
According to the libreboot docs, I can make the grub config available at
/boot/grub/libreboot_grub.cfg and the grub installed on the BIOS will load
and use that config file. I've installed guixsd with --no-grub, I have
libreboot installed, and the disk encrypted, now I just need to make it
bootable!
I think I need to make the correct grub config file available at that
location whenever I reconfigure. I can manage the coding, but I'd like
hints on the best way to go about this with guix.
There are some other options I've considered. I could reflash my BIOS as
part of the reconfiguration process. Or maybe I could chain-load two grub
installations, possibly with an unencrypted /boot.
What do people do when they don't have GuixSD manage their grub
configuration?

Thanks!
