Hello both of you,

Just adding that we don't have any Guix bootloader entry field to
chainload into another bootloader, needed for some non-free system :)
this would need to be added as well.

I personally don't mind, and use my UEFI boot menu instead if I want to
boot into said non-free OS.

Best,
