Tobias,

Thank you for taking the time to review this patch.

I'm amused that bcachefs is amongst this list so I'll test it on a
bcachefs system and get back to you.

I'm not sure if it'll works, I've just searched the packages for all the file system utilities that were available in Guix to make the mapping. You will at least need to patch your kernel to get bcachefs working properly.

In the next revision and future patches, please write ‘utilities’
instead of ‘utils’, ‘operating-system’ instead of ‘os’, &c. (in
prose and code).  In general, in Scheme, avoid all the tedious and
unnecessary abbreviation fashionable in some other languages.

This is still difficult for me especially for such widely used
abbreviations. I have kept OS in gnu/system.scm because it's used
extensively there and that 'boot-file-system-service' is modeled onto
'non-boot-file-system-service'. About the usage of 'utils' you may want to
rename %base-package-utils introduced in 93664feee1.

Cheers,
- Brice
