We made the choice to provide a guided installer, similar to that of Debian and other distros, such that users don’t have to figure out by themselves that they need to run gparted, follow steps, etc. > Thats what im requesting not what is currently happening. > >> Did you try the live VM image? >> >> https://guix.gnu.org/en/download/ > > What? where?

So I guess your primary request is about giving access to the GUIs. That comes at a cost (the ISO is already quite big) but that’s something we could consider. For now, our focus is on improving the guided installer itself. Thanks, Ludo’.
