Partitions can have their own labels and UUIDs (e.g. under GPT) that are
unrelated to those of the contained file system. Confusing the two ends
poorly.
* doc/guix.scm (File Systems, Proceeding with the Installation)
(Using the Configuration System, Initial RAM Disk): Substitute `file
system' for `partition' when talking about labels and UUIDs.
The text refers to a snippet which has since been removed, but a
suitable replacement is near. Use it.
* doc/guix.texi (Using the Configuration System): Substitute bind for
tcpdump.
Suggested by Danny Milosavljevic <dannym@scratchpost.org>.
* doc/guix.texi (Printing Services): Mention how to add support for
Epson printers to CUPS via escpr in the configuration example.
