+ (title
+ (en "Kernel persistent storage in UEFI disabled"))
+ (body
+ (en "The linux-libre kernel's persistent storage (pstore) mechanism
+can use UEFI non-volative memory to store information that would otherwise be
+lost, such as kernel panic logs. However, this can permanently fill the
+non-volatile memory on some hardware implementations, breaking the ability to
+reconfigure Guix System. Therefore, this mechanism has been disabled by default
+in the build-time kernel configuration. Users can re-enable it if desired.")))
