Phil, Barring unnoticed devils in details your process looks safe. Running ‘guix gc --verify’ is a good idea; add ‘=repair[,contents]’ if you're paranoid. Phil 写道: There were some gremlins tho - on restarting Guix the /gnu/store was seen to grow to approximately double it's size. [...]

2021-03-03 Thread Phil
Hi all, My growing /gnu/store needed to be moved to another location. I couldn't find any specific instructions on doing this but think I've managed to cobble together a way of doing this safely without breaking store properties. There were some gremlins tho - on restarting Guix the /gnu/store
