I had a typo in my declaration of the grub device (I had unintentionally left out the leading "/" on "/dev/sda"), so 'guix system init' failed when setting up grub. I fixed the typo in the OS config and reran 'guix system init' but was greeted by an error about existing store directories. I ended up needing to remove the /mnt/var, /mnt/grub, and /mnt/gnu/store before being able to successfully rerun 'guix system init'. It would be useful for newcomers if recovering from mistakes were more trivial. -- `~Eric From unknown Mon Jun 23 04:13:26 2025 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: MIME-tools 5.503 (Entity 5.503) X-Loop: help-debbugs@gnu.org From: help-debbugs@gnu.org (GNU bug Tracking System) To: Eric Bavier Subject: bug#20722: closed (Re: bug#20722: Cannot rerun 'guix system init') Message-ID: References: <87bngniwxg.fsf@gnu.org> <3f30776452649ca3f636862dc408109b@openmailbox.org> X-Gnu-PR-Message: they-closed 20722 X-Gnu-PR-Package: guix Reply-To: 20722@debbugs.gnu.org Date: Wed, 10 Jun 2015 12:14:05 +0000 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="----------=_1433938445-4702-1" This is a multi-part message in MIME format... ------------=_1433938445-4702-1 Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Your bug report #20722: Cannot rerun 'guix system init' which was filed against the guix package, has been closed.
