| 2020-09-02 | installer: Run the installation inside a container....When the store overlay is mounted, other processes such as kmscon, udev
and guix-daemon may open files from the store, preventing the
underlying install support from being umounted. See:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2018-12/msg00161.html.
To avoid this situation, mount the store overlay inside a container,
and run the installation from within that container.
* gnu/build/shepherd.scm (fork+exec-command/container): New procedure.
* gnu/services/base.scm (guix-shepherd-service): Support an optional PID
argument passed to the "start" method. If that argument is passed, ensure that
guix-daemon enters the given PID MNT namespace by using
fork+exec-command/container procedure.
* gnu/installer/final.scm (umount-cow-store): Remove it,
(install-system): run the installation from within a container.
* gnu/installer/newt/final.scm (run-install-shell): Remove the display hack.

| 2020-08-06 | installer: Remove logical devices....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>.

partition does not seem supported.

| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-06-09 | installer: utils: Dump command output to syslog when testing....When debugging the installation tests, it can be very handy to be able to read
"run-command" output, for instance when executing "guix system init".
Introduce a new "invoke-with-log" procedure that is able to log a command
standard and error outputs to the syslog. Use it, only when running the
installation tests, to dump "run-command" output.
