Re: OS doesn't see the partitions after reboot

Use a device label, as suggested at:

  
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Preparing-for-Installation.html#Disk-Partitioning

The config file you posted does use partition labels, as in:

  (file-system
    (title 'label)
    (device "root")
    …)

Could it be that the partitions actually carry a different label?  You
can check that by running ‘e2label /dev/sdX’.

HTH!
