The aim here is to improve the user experience. There's anecdotal evidence
that the network performance for bordeaux is better compared to ci at least
for some users, and I don't know of any issues with rate limiting or access
restriction for bordeaux compared to ci. It also has IPv6 support.
Additionally, bordeaux generally had more substitutes than ci, particularly
for aarch64-linux and armhf-linux. This change will offer a very slight
speedup for those substitutes that only bordeaux has.
Bordeaux has been a default substitute server for nearly 3 years now and I
think this change is overdue. I'm also hopeful that we'll be able to build on
the testing regarding mirrors for bordeaux, and that'll allow potentially
improving the hosting setup (through providing more redundancy) and further
improving substitute fetching for users who currently have issues with
substitute access.

* gnu/installer/services.scm (system-services->configuration): When the
LANGUAGE environment variable matches a known native console font, wrap the
base services with modify-services, configuring console-font-service-type to
set the native console font on every tty instead of the default console font.

iso639 code.

Previously, db.sqlite-{wal,shm} could be left behind after stopping
guix-daemon. When resuming installation, SQLite could end up behaving
as if transactions visible in the WAL file had been committed, in spite
of having restored SAVED-DATABASE.
Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/59784>.
Reported by pelzflorian (Florian Pelz) <pelzflorian@pelzflorian.de>.
* gnu/installer/final.scm (install-system): Before restarting
guix-daemon, delete db.sqlite-{wal,shm}.
As part of fixing <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/59784>, make sure
/var/guix/db.sqlite is only copied while guix-daemon is stopped.
* gnu/installer/final.scm (call-with-mnt-container): Add FIXME comment.
(install-system): Copy DATABASE-FILE and SAVED-DATABASE only when
'guix-daemon' is stopped. Add logging lines.
Fixes: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/59823>
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (mapped-device?,
mapped-device-parent-partition): New procedures.
(eligible-devices): Detect mapped installation devices using the new
procedures.
Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/59922>.
Previously progress bars and related things would be buffered by
'run-external-command-with-line-hooks' until \n is read.
* gnu/installer/utils.scm (run-external-command-with-line-hooks): Use
'read-delimited' rather than 'get-line'. Pass 'concat as the last
argument.
(%display-line-hook): Remove.
(run-command): Use 'display' instead of '%display-line-hook'.
(%syslog-line-hook): Add "\n" when LINE doesn't end in \n.
(%installer-log-line-hook): Do not add an extra newline.
(installer-log-line): Add an extra newline.
* gnu/installer/hardware.scm: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (INSTALLER_MODULES): Add it.
* po/guix/POTFILES.in: Add it.
* gnu/installer.scm (installer-steps): Pass #:pci-database to the
'welcome' step procedure.
* gnu/installer/newt.scm (welcome-page): Add #:pci-database and pass it
to 'run-welcome-page'.
* gnu/installer/newt/welcome.scm (check-hardware-support): Add #:pci-database.
Enumerate unsupported PCI devices and run an error page when unsupported
devices are found.
(run-welcome-page): Add #:pci-database and pass it to
'check-hardware-support' and to the recursive call.
* gnu/installer/record.scm (<installer>)[welcome-page]: Adjust comment.
* doc/guix.texi (Hardware Considerations): Mention it.
This is a followup to 682639c107, which
added the uvesafb upfront, before welcome page had been displayed.
* gnu/installer/newt/welcome.scm (check-hardware-support): New
procedure.
(run-welcome-page): Use it.
When the user aborts the installation because a core dump is discovered or the
installation command failed, displaying the abort backtrace doesn't make much
sense. Hide it when the abort condition is &user-abort-error and skip directly
to the dump page.
* gnu/installer/steps.scm (&user-abort-error): New variable.
(user-abort-error?): New procedure.
* gnu/installer/newt/final.scm (run-install-failed-page): Raise a
user-abort-error.
* gnu/installer/newt/welcome.scm (run-welcome-page): Ditto.
* gnu/installer.scm (installer-program): Hide the backtrace page and directly
propose to dump the report when the a &user-abort-error is raised.
There will be false positives: Because the Guix installer uses the
kernel argument modprobe.blacklist=radeon,amdgpu and some AMD graphics
actually work okay according to h-node, these users will get a
false alarm.
* gnu/installer/newt/welcome.scm (run-welcome-page): Warn before showing
the welcome page.
This is a follow-up of: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/57232>
* gnu/installer/newt/partition.scm (run-label-page): Add a confirmation page
when dealing with an EFI installation.

* gnu/installer/utils.scm (run-external-command-with-handler/tty): New
procedure.
(run-external-command-with-line-hooks, run-command): Add a TTY? argument.
* gnu/installer/final.scm (install-system): Call run-command with TTY?
argument set to #true.
Checks the availability of the mirror bordeaux.guix.gnu.org in addition to
ci.guix.gnu.org. This allows to proceed the installation if the
ci.guix.gnu.org is unavailable.
* gnu/installer/newt/network.scm (wait-service-online): Relax internet check
availability criteria.

When the configuration is edited, it looks like there are some leftover
fragments from the input configuration:
Example content of config.scm after edition:

(guix combinators)))
unted". The unique

This is strange because call-with-output-file uses the O_TRUNC flag which
resets the file size to zero. Remove the configuration file before writing it
as a work-around.
* gnu/installer/tests.scm (edit-configuration-file): Remove the configuration
file before re-writing it.

* gnu/installer.scm (module-to-import?): Return #t for (guix read-print).
* gnu/installer/steps.scm (configuration->file): Use
'pretty-print-with-comments/splice' instead of 'for-each' and 'pretty-print'.
Parted 3.5 introduces the following regression:
- partition-set-flag sets the BIOS_GRUB flag. The partition type is set to
PARTITION_BIOS_GRUB_GUID.
- partition-set-system resets the partition type to PARTITION_LINUX_DATA_GUID
undoing what's done by partition-set-flag.
To prevent it, reverse the call order.
Fixes: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/55549>.
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (mkpart): Call partition-set-system before
partition-set-flag.
Forbid root user creation as it could lead to a system without any
non-priviledged user accouts.

* gnu/installer/newt/user.scm (run-user-add-page): Forbid it.
This is to make it less surprising, given the common convention sets forth by
the kernel Linux command-line parameters.
