I use dd to copy the iso image to a thumb drive and boot from it in UEFI, then go through the installer which fails at the partitioning step. the other partitions sdc3-sdc5 have linux installs already.

The latter should have a lot of improvements over the former. Are you using the graphical installer or the manual way? It's not clear to me whether you get that backtrace with the installer or directly with `guix` invocations. We have a handy error dump tool in case of installer bugs that was introduced after 1.3, and if that's your case it'd help go into more details about what's going wrong. If you're going the manual way, could you send your config.scm, possibly redacting the sensitive parts? Best, -- Josselin Poiret
