If you have the new /gnu/store as a btrfs subvolume, you may need to tell
`mount` which subvolume to mount there. I haven't tried moving /gnu/store, but
my systems have / and /gnu/store as separate btrfs subvolumes in the same
LUKS-encrypted partition. Here is the `file-systems` stanza of one of my
system's operating-system declaration, in case it is helpful:
(file-systems
(let ((rootfs (file-system
(mount-point "/")
(device "/dev/mapper/cryptroot1")
(type "btrfs")
(check? #f)
(options "compress=zstd,subvol=@guix")
(dependencies mapped-devices))))
(cons* rootfs
(file-system
(mount-point "/boot/efi")
(device (file-system-label "EFI"))
(type "vfat")
(mount-may-fail? #t)
(dependencies mapped-devices))
(file-system
(mount-point "/gnu")
(device "/dev/mapper/cryptroot1")
(type "btrfs")
(check? #f)
(options "compress=zstd,subvol=@gnu_store")
(dependencies (cons rootfs mapped-devices)))
%base-file-systems)))
