* gnu/installer/parted.scm (user-partitions->configuration): Introduce
vertical space and a comment.
* gnu/installer/services.scm (G_): New macro.

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.
This is to make it less surprising, given the common convention sets forth by
the kernel Linux command-line parameters.
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (boot-system): Rename '--load', '--repl', '--root'
and '--system' to 'gnu.load', 'gnu.repl', 'root' and 'gnu.system',
respectively. Adjust doc.
(find-long-option): Adjust doc.
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (installer-root-partition-path): Adjust accordingly.

update doc. Use VERSION to conditionally return old style vs new style initrd
arguments.

* gnu/installer/newt/partition.scm (run-fs-type-page): Add ‘xfs’ to the
list box.
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (user-fs-type-name, user-fs-type->mount-type)
(partition-filesystem-user-type): Add ‘xfs’ mapping.
(create-xfs-file-system): New procedure.
(format-user-partitions): Use it.
* gnu/installer.scm (set-installer-path): Add xfsprogs.
Fixes: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/47780>.
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (installation-device): New method.
(non-install-devices): Remove devices which are reported as read-only by
parted or which path is identical to the installation device path returned by
the above method.
The "fat" file-system mount type doesn't exist in Linux. Trying to mount a
FAT16 partition with "fat" file-system type returns -ENODEV.
Fixes: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/48419>.
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (user-fs-type->mount-type): Use the "vfat"
file-system for FAT16 partitions.
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (&cannot-read-uuid): New condition.
(cannot-read-uuid?, cannot-read-uuid-partition): New procedures.
(check-user-partitions): Check that all user-partitions have a valid UUID,
raide the above condition otherwise.
* gnu/installer/newt/partition.scm (run-disk-page): Run an error page if the
&cannot-read-uuid condition is raised.
Fixes: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/47889>.
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (esp-partition?): Remove the MSDOS check.
(auto-partition!): On MSDOS disks, check if an ESP partition is present. If
that's the case, do not remove it. Otherwise, if UEFI is supported, create
one.
Reported by Florian Pelz:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2020-11/msg00326.html.
* gnu/installer/utils.scm (call-with-time): New procedure,
(let/time): new macro.
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (with-delay-device-in-use?): Increase the retry
count to 16.
(non-install-devices): Remove the call to with-delay-device-in-use? as it
doesn't return the expected result, and would block much longer now.
(free-parted): Log the time required to sync each device.
Note: This change requires an updated 'guix' package that contains
Linux-swap support in (gnu build file-systems).
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (user-partitions->configuration): Use UUIDs
in the 'swap-devices' field.
* gnu/installer/newt/final.scm (run-final-page)[wait-for-clients]: New
procedure. Use it.
* gnu/installer/tests.scm (choose-partitioning): Wait for
'starting-final-step' message and move configuration file dialog
handling to...
(conclude-installation): ... here. Send over PORT the reply
corresponding to 'starting-final-step'.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (gui-test-program): When ENCRYPTED? is false,
invoke 'swaplabel' in the marionette.
(installation-target-os-for-gui-tests): When ENCRYPTED? is false, except
a fixed UUID.
If a device contains an active logical volume, BLKRRPART will report that the
device is busy. This will cause this device to be filtered by
"non-install-devices" procedure, which is not desired.
Make sure to deactivate all logical volumes before device probing.
Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/42683>.
* gnu/installer.scm (installer-program): Add lvm2-static to the inputs.
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (remove-logical-devices): New procedure,
(init-parted): call it.
This adds support for creating and editing NTFS partitions. It is however not
possible yet to create root NTFS partitions, as overlaying on top of a fuse
partition does not seem supported.
* gnu/installer.scm (installer-program): Add "ntfs-3g" to the inputs.
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (user-fs-type-name, user-fs-type->mount-type,
partition-filesystem-user-type, create-ntfs-file-system,

replace disk-delete-all by disk-remove-all-partitions and
disk-delete-partition by disk-remove-partition*.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/36099>.
Reported by Jonathan Brielmaier <jonathan.brielmaier@web.de>.
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (initrd-configuration): Add
%BASE-INITRD-MODULES to the 'initrd-modules' field.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/35783>.
This is a followup to 7d567af46b.
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (auto-partition!): Append ESP-PARTITION, when
it is true, to the result of 'create-adjacent-partitions!'.
* gnu/installer/newt/partition.scm (run-partioning-page): Remove
'initial-partitions' variable, and remove call to
