This makes me think that ‘auto-partition’ should probably be called
‘auto-partition!’.

Hello,
I’ve tested the installer in a UEFI setup like this:
qemu-img create -f qcow2 /tmp/t.img 2G
$(guix system vm gnu/system/install.scm) -m 256 -net user \
-hda /tmp/t.img \
-bios $(guix build ovmf)/share/firmware/ovmf_x64.bin
Sometimes, the installer crashes with the attached backtrace: EBUSY
while mounting /mnt/boot/efi. Strangely, if I go to a console at that
point and run ‘mount’, I see that /mnt/boot/efi is already mounted.
Thoughts?
Ludo’.
