Subject: Running graphical install inside existing Guix System
Date: Tue, 12 Jan 2021 14:49:08 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <fff9e2e9-11f4-258e-b45b-ea4c4bcedf51@stumbles.id.au> (raw)
Hi Folks,
I have an existing Guix System running on my laptop and would like to
install Guix System onto a brand new larger hard drive, connected by a
USB-to-SATA cable.
Could it be possible to run the graphical installer from within my
existing Guix System to partition and install onto the new drive rather
than messing around with a bootable USB and rebooting?
I realise there's lower-level tools like "guix system init" you could
use if you were happy to partition and format the new drive manually,
but it would be such a great user experience to leverage the existing
graphical installer from withing Guix System.
Regards,
Ben
