Hello!
I’ve run an installation with:
qemu-img create -f qcow2 /tmp/img.qcow2 2G
qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -m 2048 \
-cdrom /gnu/store/…-image.iso -hda /tmp/img.qcow2 \
-boot d
where the image was obtained by running:
guix system disk-image -t iso9660 --label=GUIX_x86_64-linux_1.2.1 \
gnu/system/install.scm
The installer would propose me two target storage devices: hard disk and
CD/DVD. I mistakenly chose the latter, which led to a crash (screenshot
attached).
Possible improvements are:
1. gracefully handling this error;
2. filtering out read-only storage devices from the menu.
Thoughts?
(This is with commit 863bd265e458d2761906770802716555c54e69a4.)
