Hi,
Ady Ady gave me a hint about why the EFI partition in Guix 0.16.0 ISO
has 1.4 MB of size, despite grub-mkrescue asks mformat for 2.8 MB.
Obviously Guix uses mtools 4.0.21 (image OEM-ID "MTOO4021") which is one
version before this bug fix:
"Fixed -f flag for mformat (size is KBytes, rather than sectors)"
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gnu/2018-12/msg00000.html
(Actually this size is quite some waste. Even 1.4 MB is generously
oversized for the three directories and one or two boot*.efi.)
Have a nice day :)
Thomas
