| 2020-11-17 | bootloader: grub: Skip install-grub-efi when producing a disk image....Fixes <http://issues.guix.gnu.org/44353>.
Every bootloader should try their best to install themselves using only the
MOUNT-POINT and otherwise do nothing. This requirement comes from the
necessity to call INSTALL-GRUB when installing the (non-EFI) GRUB bootloader,
which needs to populate the root file system with extra modules that cannot be
fit in the core.img file, limited in size to 491520 bytes (by the i386-pc
format required for legacy BIOS compatibility).
As introducing bootloader knowledge at the level of the image code is
undesirable, every bootloader should be adapted to support this fall-back for
their installation procedure (TODO).
* gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (install-grub-efi)[efi-dir]: Skip when the EFI-DIR
argument is set to #f.

by ...
(<grub-theme>)[image]: ... this field with the default from %background-image,

(svg->png): Rename to ...

(grub-image-aspect-ratio): Remove function.
(grub-image-file): Remove function.
(grub-theme-images): Remove function.
(%default-theme): Remove variable.
(%background-image): Remove variable.
Using image formats different to SVG was not possible.
For a <grub-image> to be chosen, the 'aspect-ratio' of it had to be 4/3, as the
resolution of any image was defaulting to 1024 x 768.
There was no code to determine the proper boot-resolution to make any use of a
list of images with different aspect-ratios.
It seems to be a better solution to only define a single image with any format,
and use a given resolution only for the conversion from a SVG file. This also
makes the use of a special <grub-image> record unnecessary.
Moving the default values from '%background-image' and '%default-theme' into
<grub-theme> makes a customisation easier without (inherit) and allows to remove
the undocumented variables %background-image' and '%default-theme'.

| 2017-09-11 | system: Introduce a disjoint UUID type....Conceptually a UUID is just a bytevector. However, there's software out
there such as GRUB that relies on the string representation of different
UUID types (e.g., the string representation of DCE UUIDs differs from

same length). This new <uuid> record type allows us to preserve

* gnu/system/examples/bare-bones.tmpl: Use the newer
"bootloader-configuration" syntax.
* gnu/system/examples/desktop.tmpl: Use bootloader-configuration sytax. Also,
use the same label for the LUKS-mapped device and the root partition. Remove

manual, the "title" field is ignored for mapped devices.
* gnu/system/examples/lightweight-desktop.tmpl: Use bootloader-configuration,
and use grub-efi-bootloader.
