> Is it really a problem to always have a partition table? The ISO9660 filesystem code doesn't find its primary volume descriptor when it's looking for it on the (fake) partition. (I'm not sure what the fake partition is for in the first place). But /proc/partitions would have contained "sda" itself, Guix just filters it out. Of course we could special-case ISO9660 - but even easier (and less surprising) would be to just use /proc/partitions as-is and not fiddle with it (ok, maybe filter out the ram disks - not sure what that's about). WDYT?
