(title
(en "Kernel persistent storage in UEFI disabled"))
(body
(en "The linux-libre kernel's persistent storage (pstore) mechanism
can use UEFI non-volative memory to store information that would otherwise be
lost, such as kernel panic logs. However, this can permanently fill the
non-volatile memory on some hardware implementations, breaking the ability to
reconfigure Guix System. Therefore, this mechanism has been disabled by default
in the build-time kernel configuration. Users can re-enable it if desired.")))
