I noticed that =E2=80=98guix system disk-image=E2=80=99 installs GRUB = with its debug files, which doubles the size for GRUB inside the image. There is gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (install-grub), which does a simple (copy-recursively (string-append bootloader "/lib/") install-dir) This also copies gdb_grub, gmodule.pl and all *.module files, in total = about 200 files. These *.module file are basically unstriped versions of = the *.mod files. The (install-grub) function should prevent to install these files, or = =E2=80=93 possibly better =E2=80=93 the grub package could move these = files into a separate debug output. Bye Stefan=
