With guix at revision df81e046c57e5f767738113e4e7a28b212c03d63 I tried
to deploy Guix to another partition.
Result system installed Grub into partition but did not copied it's
store to /gnu/store/ on target partition.
As a result, no graphics was working (font loading depends on the
store) and no grub reinstallation was possible.
Configuration used:
(use-modules (gnu)
(gnu packages bash)
(gnu packages emacs)
(gnu packages enlightenment)
(gnu packages grub)
(gnu packages linux)
(gnu packages mc)
(gnu packages wicd)
(gnu packages xorg)
(gnu packages dwm)
(gnu services ssh)
(gnu services dbus)
(gnu services networking)
(gnu services xorg))
(operating-system
(host-name "venom")
(timezone "Europe/Prague")
(locale "cs_CZ.utf8")
(bootloader (grub-configuration
(device "/dev/sda")))
(file-systems (append (list (file-system
(device "/dev/sda4") ; or partition label
(mount-point "/")
(type "ext4"))
; (file-system
; (device "/dev/venom/home")
; (mount-point "/home")
; (type "ext4"))
)
%base-file-systems))
; (swap-devices '("/dev/sda2"))
(users (list (user-account
(name "tcech")
(uid 1000) (group "users")
(comment "Tomas Cech")
(home-directory "/home/tcech"))))
(packages (append
(list emacs lvm2 mc bash xterm slock dwm terminology iw wicd)
%base-packages))
(services (append (list (lsh-service #:port-number 2222 #:root-login? #t)
(slim-service)
(wicd-service)
(dbus-service '()))
%base-services))
(kernel linux-libre)
)

Hmm OK. GuixSD doesn’t support LVM though (although that would be
nice!), so I guess there’s another part of the story that I’m not aware
of.

Done. Apologies if that discussion frustrated you, I tried hard to
understand and address the issue.
Thanks,
