Running the same ‘mount’ command on my GuixSD returns a hint: n...@apollo.tobias.gr ~$ mount /dev/mapper/root on / type ext4 (rw,relatime,data=ordered) /dev/mapper/root on /gnu/store type ext4 (ro,relatime,data=ordered) > - gnu/system/install.scm defines the system to be put into the > installation image.

I think this is all that's going on, and it's merely the output of ‘mount’ that's confusing you: the ‘ro’ bind mount ‘inherits’ the file system type of the parent. In my example above, it's ext4. In yours, it's fuse.unionfs. Unless I'm missing something. Kind regards, T G-R
