First off, thanks for your help so far!
Did you use 1.0.1 image or a more recent one?
I was using the Guix System 1.0.1 x86_64 image here:
https://guix.gnu.org/download/
Did you mount your EFI partition to "/mnt/boot/efi" before
starting the
install?
Yep. Not mounting it yields a different error (cannot find
canonical
path of /mnt/boot/efi)
I'll also confirm I'm setting the esp flag on the partition.
Now, if you could try again with:
* The 1.1.0-rc2 release available here[2].
- The graphical installer displays normal behavior up to when
making the
partitions, where it resets the installation without displaying an
error
- Installation through TTY has the same behavior as before,
efibootmgr
failed to register the boot entry: Input/output error
* This custom release[3]: 1.1.0-rc2 + the patch suggested by
Danny for
partitions > 1TiB.
- Graphical installation has an oddity, my Samsung drive has
disappeared
from the disk selection in both guided and manual partitioning
- Strangely, my WD Blue 2TB drive (also an SSD) with the NixOS
installation shows up just fine
- While it is possible to access the Samsung drive from the TTY,
and
even wipe it/make new partitions, trying to populate the
partitions with
filesystems will result in them saying they're in use or already
mounted. I suspect this is also why it's not showing up in the
graphical
installation.
