@item --skip-checks
Skip pre-installation safety checks.
By default, @command{guix system init} and @command{guix system
reconfigure} perform safety checks: they make sure the file systems that
appear in the @code{operating-system} declaration actually exist
(@pxref{File Systems}), and that any Linux kernel modules that may be
needed at boot time are listed in @code{initrd-modules} (@pxref{Initial
RAM Disk}). Passing this option skips these tests altogether.
