There will be false positives: Because the Guix installer uses the
kernel argument modprobe.blacklist=radeon,amdgpu and some AMD graphics
actually work okay according to h-node, these users will get a
false alarm.
* gnu/installer/newt/welcome.scm (run-welcome-page): Warn before showing

When the configuration is edited, it looks like there are some leftover
fragments from the input configuration:
Example content of config.scm after edition:
#:imported-modules
'((gnu services herd)
(guix build utils)
(guix combinators)))
unted". The unique
;; file system identifiers there ("UUIDs") can be obtained
;; by running 'blkid' in a terminal.
...
This is strange because call-with-output-file uses the O_TRUNC flag which
resets the file size to zero. Remove the configuration file before writing it
as a work-around.

file before re-writing it.

* gnu/installer/steps.scm (configuration->file): Use
'pretty-print-with-comments/splice' instead of 'for-each' and 'pretty-print'.
Parted 3.5 introduces the following regression:
- partition-set-flag sets the BIOS_GRUB flag. The partition type is set to
PARTITION_BIOS_GRUB_GUID.
- partition-set-system resets the partition type to PARTITION_LINUX_DATA_GUID
undoing what's done by partition-set-flag.
To prevent it, reverse the call order.
Fixes: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/55549>.
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (mkpart): Call partition-set-system before
partition-set-flag.
Forbid root user creation as it could lead to a system without any
non-priviledged user accouts.
Fixes: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/54666>.
* gnu/installer/newt/user.scm (run-user-add-page): Forbid it.
