[Nix-dev] Lost /boot partition (was: UEFI Grub is not running)
Oh boy!
I made a big mess and lost the /boot partition (while updating boot
flags)! Now I don't even know how to fix it, but at least I know the
other partitions are OK...
I will try to rescue it now...

Here's my UEFI specific stuff:
boot = {
loader = {
efi.canTouchEfiVariables = true;
grub.enable = true;
grub.efiSupport = true;
grub.device = nodev;
grub.version = 2;
};
fileSystems./boot =
{ device = /dev/disk/by-label/efi;
fsType = vfat;
};
You probably miss grub.device = nodev

Re: [Nix-dev] UEFI Grub is not running, only gummiboot
If it were not a UEFI question, I would say that you only have to tag one partition as bootable. On Wed, Aug 19, 2015 at 07:36:09AM -0300, Anderson Torres wrote: Hello, Nixers!

Re: [Nix-dev] Fwd: gnome-keyring 3.17.x: package pinentry 0.9.5+
I was wondering why libsecret support was added and will go ahead with that in the near future. I'm not sure what enabling it's gnome3 means, gtk3 dialog?
