[Low priority, but I keep forgetting about it.]

Guix,

What the subject says.  The Linux command line isn't bash.

Use, e.g., =E2=80=98root=3D=E2=80=99 instead of the Guix-specific and unint=
uitive=20
=E2=80=98--root=3D=E2=80=99.  It's surrounded by normal =E2=80=98nomodeset=
=E2=80=99 & =E2=80=98quiet=E2=80=99=20
arguments anyway.

For things like =E2=80=98--repl=E2=80=99 we might substitute =E2=80=98rd.re=
pl=E2=80=99, or=20
=E2=80=98rd.rescue=E2=80=99 which has the advantage of being used by system=
d=20
[users] as well.

Kind regards,

T G-R

(Why =E2=80=9Crd.=E2=80=9D?  I=E2=80=99d use =E2=80=9Cgnu.=E2=80=9D to make=
 sure we don=E2=80=99t inadvertently use
something that has a different meaning elsewhere.)

I agree with the proposed change, I=E2=80=99ve been meaning to do something
about it for a long time, too.  :-)

For =E2=80=98--root=E2=80=99 is a bit tricky because it=E2=80=99s an implic=
it option, not
explicitly listed in /run/current-system/parameters and similar places.

So we=E2=80=99d probably have to (1) make it explicit, and (2) use =E2=80=
=98--root=E2=80=99 when
generating a GRUB entry for a system generation that lacks the explicit
=E2=80=9Croot=3DXYZ=E2=80=9D string in its =E2=80=98kernel-arguments=E2=80=
=99.

Ludo=E2=80=99.
