gnome-disk from a live-usb system sees the partition and its size, but cannot recognize the contents, filesystem type, or UUID.

Last thing I did on this machine was to do a test-run of the #guix graphical installer. I cancelled the install process once I reached the partitioning stage, and assumed it had not written anything to disk.

Some way to recover the partition table without erasing?

Oh no:

```
error: attempt to read or write outside of partition.
Entering rescue mode...
grub rescue>
```

It will list the root directory of my main partition, but same error if I try to list contents of any subdirectories. :/

I'm wondering if this RISC-V dev board from SiFive would be a nice target for #Guix porting: https://www.sifive.com/boards/hifive-unmatched

Another Emerald Ash Borer casualty in my neighborhood this morning. RIP 1920-2020.

It'll live on a bit longer: I spoke with the person doing the work, and they said they'll be planking it (according to local law to prevent spread) at their sawmill.

Playing around with #mobilizon via the demo server a bit tonight. I've wanted this for so long. I'm glad we finally have it!

And it's improving. Please help if you can! https://joinmobilizon.org

I just updated the "tomb" package in #guix to version 2.8. Fixes CVE-2020-28638

I shared my voting experience with Stand Up America today. It only takes a few moments to do and it’ll have a big impact on increasing access to the ballot box for all Americans:

I'm just thankful that the weather was nice today so I could spend most of it outside.

Running #Guix on my EeePC, sometimes when there are substitutes missing I let it build away so it can feel that sense of accomplishment. :)

Just upgraded my YunoHost box! The migration was fairly smooth, just 2 issues that were solved within about 15 minutes:
1) postgres migration got hung up somehow, had to manually delete new "11" cluster before rerunning postgres migration; and
2) matrix-synapse got stuck in a fail-to-start state, which was solved by doing an app upgrade from master.

Thought I had my #guix patch all ready to go, with test and everything. Turns out the test doesn't recreate the failure case like I thought it did. 🙄

Need to look a little more closely at how the #Guile `load` procedure searches for files.
