+;;; Commentary:
+;;;
+;;; This module supports the installation of the GNU system on a hard disk.
+;;; It is meant to be used both in a build environment (in derivations that
+;;; build VM images), and on the bare metal (when really installing the
+;;; system.)

+MOUNT-POINT. Return #t on success."
