Well I tried to run GuixSD without initrd and it's not possible yet. Besides mounting root partition, it's also used to start the initial guile script (/run/current-system/boot). However, that's something I'd like to see :) > >> --- a/gnu/bootloader/extlinux.scm > That's why I think if we have public <menu-entry> records anyway now, let's > use them for the bootloader stuff throughout. You're right there's something fishy here. But, if we want to remove the notion of <boot-parameters> from (gnu bootloader ...), that would mean that callers of "configuration-file-generator" will have to adapt their API and that's a more consequent rework. Ludo, any thoughts ? Mathieu
