Thanks, but kernel-arguments isn't recognized as a valid field of
bootloader-configuration.
# guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm
/etc/config.scm:93:14: error:
(bootloader-configuration
(bootloader grub-bootloader)
(targets (list "/dev/vda"))
(terminal-outputs (quote (serial)))
(terminal-inputs (quote (serial)))
(serial-speed 115200)
(kernel-arguments (cons* "console=ttyS0,115200n8"
%default-kernel-arguments))
): extraneous field initializers (kernel-arguments)
It *is* recognized as a valid field of a menu-entry, but that
brings me back to my original problem. I don't want to write
additional menu entries, I want to modify the automatically
generated menu entries.
