I addressed that in 084b76a70a6b302529f3450e6d07f1d105a10f7d, not by
adding ‘--skip-checks’, but instead by adding a ‘safety-checks?’ field
to <machine-ssh-configuration>.  This is consistent with the
‘allow-upgrades?’ field that was added to skip downgrade checks.

Let me know what you think!

Thanks,
Ludo’.

If a customized kernel is build with "non standard" (initrd) modules, one
needs --skip-checks for guix system reconfigure.
This can't be deployed, because guix deploy has no --skip-checks.

I came up with this issue in #irc and Ludo said, we should have a bug,
so we don't forget ;)


Love, Peace & Guix!
