bug#56316: Problem installing on hardware

[Steve Greenburg]

I wasn't able to install guix on hardware on a GPT partitioned drive. First I thought it was because I deleted sdc6 and remade it, but after rebooting got the same error. I use dd to copy the iso image to a thumb drive and boot from it in UEFI, then go through the installer which fails at the partitioning step. the other partitions sdc3-sdc5 have linux installs already. Tried to put it on sdc6 and put mount point /
Here is the backtrace. Is there anything I can do to investigate further and install guix?
