Finally, it is not clear where the efi partition should be mounted. Should it be /mnt/boot/efi? If so, should the configuration file specify “/mnt/boot/efi” as the target? Or should it be “/boot/efi”?

An example would be useful here.

We have an example in the manual at "(guix) Using the Configuration System" with the following sections:

 ;; Use the UEFI variant of GRUB with the EFI System
 ;; Partition mounted on /boot/efi.
 (bootloader (bootloader-configuration
               (bootloader grub-efi-bootloader)
               (target "/boot/efi")))

 ;; Assume the target root file system is labelled "my-root",
 ;; and the EFI System Partition has UUID 1234-ABCD.
 (file-systems (cons* (file-system
                        (device "my-root")
                        (title 'label)
                        (mount-point "/")
                        (type "ext4"))
                      (file-system
                        (device (uuid "1234-ABCD" 'fat))
                        (title 'uuid)
                        (mount-point "/boot/efi")
                        (type "vfat"))
                      %base-file-systems))

I know that's a completely different section where you're talking about, but maybe it can be referenced/copied in the installation section. I think we should mount the efi partition at /boot/efi during installation, to match the way things will be when we boot into the installed system.
