[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hy fellow guix developers, I wanted to try the fruits of your work but
wasn't lucky enough to taste them.

A screen with red background say'd I should write you so now I am doing so.

Here is an Image of that screen.
I hope it is O.K. to attach it as jpg.

Kind regards
cybercow

Heheh, thanks.  Could you tell us what partitioning scheme you chose
when you reached that error?

Did you try other partitioning schemes?

Thanks,
Ludo’.

I have 2 discs in that computer. At first I existentially copied the
boot image to the 2nd disc instead to the USB-stick. than I loaded it
additionally to the USB-stick and booted from it. That had the effect
that the second disc (sdb) wasn't seen by the install media.

After that I formatted that disc as ntfs, which lad tho the the red screen.

I tryed the Standard, formation which uses the whole disc. Once with and
once without encryption, bot that made no difference. I chose both times
to make no /home partition.
