2021-12-28 | installer: Recommend 'ntp-service-type' for non-graphical systems....We had several bug reports with a root cause of "the clock was
incorrect" from users who used the installer to install a non-graphical
Guix System.
* gnu/installer/services.scm (%system-services): Add the ntp-service-type.
* gnu/installer/newt/services.scm (run-system-administration-cbt-page): New
variable.
(run-services-page): Use run-system-administration-cbt-page when not
installing a desktop.
* gnu/installer/tests.scm (choose-services): Add and use a
choose-misc-service? procedure.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (installation-target-os-for-gui-tests)<services>: Add
ntp-service-type.

2021-12-28 | installer: Offer the CUPS printing service on a dedicated page....Currently, the installer page RUN-OTHER-SERVICES-CBT-PAGE offers to the user all
installer services that are not of the types 'desktop', 'network-management', or
'networking'. Concretely, this means that it offers the CUPS printing service,
because that is the only service of a different type defined in the installer.
In later commits, we will add some services of a new type, and we only want them
to be offered when the user is installing a non-graphical system.
At least one of these new services (NTP) is part of %DESKTOP-SERVICES. If it
was also offered on RUN-OTHER-SERVICES-CBT-PAGE, and the user had configured a
system using %DESKTOP-SERVICES, the user could accidentally add NTP to their
services twice, which is an error and would break installation.
So, this commit makes the RUN-OTHER-SERVICES-CBT-PAGE be more specific about
what services to offer. This makes it easier to discriminate between desktop and
non-desktop installations, in terms of when a given service is offered.
* gnu/installer/newt/services.scm (RUN-OTHER-SERVICES-CBT-PAGE): Rename to ...
(RUN-PRINTING-SERVICES-CBT-PAGE): ... new variable, and select only 'document' services.
(RUN-SERVICES-PAGE): Adjust accordingly.
* gnu/installer/tests.scm (CHOOSE-SERVICES): Adjust accordingly.

2021-10-21 | installer: Reorder file system type listbox....Recommending ext4 over btrfs is probably ill-advised nowadays. See the
regular bug reports about running out of /gnu/store directory entries,
for which the documented fix then breaks booting with GRUB.
Instead, just list regular file systems alphabetically. We can bikeshed
bcachefs later ;-)
Move second-class file systems like NTFS to their own section at the end
of the list.
* gnu/packages/package-management.scm (run-fs-type-page): Reorder the
LISTBOX-ITEMS.

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,

2019-05-15 | installer: Mount ESP once only....Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/35731>.
* gnu/installer/newt/partition.scm (run-partioning-page)[run-page]:
Introduce 'initial-partitions' variable. Previously we'd call
'disk-partitions' after 'auto-partition' had done its job of creating
new partitions, and thus its result would contain the just-created
partitions. Consequently, 'create-special-user-partitions' would return
the ESP partition we just created, and thus it would appear twice in the
list.
