Hello,
I'm unable to reconfigure my AMD APU AM1 machine. It looks like it's
failing to install the bootloader:
Installing for x86_64-efi platform.
/gnu/store/1wzysj68sk5p713kd60wdxdiv448y1xs-grub-efi-2.02/sbin/grub-install:
error: failed to get canonical path of `none'.
guix system: error: failed to install bootloader
/gnu/store/9sfnqinym73lhz7ad7ab7iy6kl4ir823-bootloader-installer
I can't seem to find anything in /var/log/messages. Though the failure
to reconfigure have have happened a week ago, and /var/log/messages only
goes back 5 days.
Thanks,
Joshua
P.S.
Here is my config file:
