Return true if DEVICE is an ext2 file system and if it was cleanly unmounted.

Return the number suitable for the 'flags' argument of 'mount' that corresponds to the swap-space SWAP.

Check an unmounted TYPE file system on DEVICE. Do nothing but warn if it is mounted. If FORCE? is true, check even when considered unnecessary. If REPAIR is false, try not to write to DEVICE at all. If it's #t, try to fix all errors found. Otherwise, fix only those considered safe to repair automatically. Not all TYPEs support all values or combinations of FORCE? and REPAIR. Don't throw an exception in such cases but perform the nearest sane action.

Bind-mount SOURCE at TARGET.

Return the number suitable for the 'flags' argument of 'mount' that corresponds to the symbols listed in FLAGS.

Return DEVICE-SPEC as UUID, FILE-SYSTEM-LABEL, or DEVICE-SPEC.

Run PROGRAM with ARGS, creating a tty if its standard input isn't one. The return value is as for 'system*'.

This is necessary for commands such as 'cryptsetup open' or 'fsck' that may need to interact with the user but might be invoked from shepherd, where standard input is /dev/null.

Return the device name corresponding to SPEC, which can be a <uuid>, a <file-system-label>, the string 'none' or another string (typically a /dev file name or an nfs-root containing ':/').

Return DEVICE-NAME as a Hurd device name: part:PART-NUMBER:device:DISKdDISK-INDEX Default to part:1:device:DISKd0 if partition cannot be found.

Mount the file system described by FS, a <file-system> object, under ROOT.

This procedure is meant to be called from an early RC script.

Install the relevant passive translators on the first boot. Then, run system activation by using the kernel command-line options 'gnu.system' and 'gnu.load'; starting the Shepherd.

Make some of the nodes needed on GNU/Hurd.

Create an Icecat extension from package PKG and return a package that, when installed, will make the extension contained in PKG available as an Icecat browser extension. PKG-OUTPUT specifies which output of PKG to use.

Initialize the given ROOT directory. Use BOOTCFG and BOOTCFG-LOCATION to install the bootloader configuration.

If COPY-CLOSURES? is true, copy all of REFERENCES-GRAPHS to the partition. If REGISTER-CLOSURES? is true, register REFERENCES-GRAPHS in the store. If DEDUPLICATE? is true, then also deduplicate files common to CLOSURES and the rest of the store when registering the closures. SYSTEM-DIRECTORY is the name of the directory of the 'system' derivation. Pass WAL-MODE? to register-closure.

Given a GRUB package, creates an iso image as TARGET, using BOOTCFG as GRUB configuration and OS-DRV as the stuff in it.

Install in ROOT directory, an EFI 32bit loader using GRUB-EFI32.

Convert IMAGE to OUTPUT according to the given FORMAT.
