Using /dev/sda is perhaps not reliable when you have plugged in other
hard drives or storage media.  The manual should not recommend
/dev/sda in my opinion.

Please file bugs with information what was needed to make Guix work,
if you have the time. :)  It is helpful and important work.  I believe
not all developers have time to read help-guix (and am not
knowledgeable enough and do not see myself as a Guix developer).  In
particular, it is a bug if the graphical installer does not work for
you.

I wish you a good time with Guix.

Florian
