Apparently the latest version needs a tiny patch mentioned here:
https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/development/chapter08/grub.html
As for testing, the best option is to run a couple of installation
tests:
make check-system TESTS="installed-os encrypted-root-os"
(See
<https://guix.gnu.org/manual/devel/en/html_node/Running-the-Test-Suite.html>.)
Those installation tests are expensive in terms of CPU and disk space;
consider going for a walk while they’re running. :-)
Thanks for looking into this!
Ludo’.
