Subject: Using 'guix system disk-image' on a non-GuixSD OS
To: <help-guix <at> gnu.org>


Hi all,

I do not know whether the "guix system disk-image" command is supposed
to work on a non GuixSD system.

If it is, then I'm running into an error while trying to create a disk
from a system declaration on my Arch Linux OS.

I run:
$ guix system disk-image --fallback config.scm

with config.scm copied at the end of this email.

I get the error message at the end of this emai.

I do not really know where to start looking. It appears that the error
is in the qemu package, which is necessary for grub. I tried removing
the bootloader part of the system declaration, as I can boot from the
ext4 partition directly, but it seems necessary to have one such part
in the OS declaration.

Any help would be appreciated. In the meantime I'm running the command
in a GuixSD VM, but it's taking forever and it's way more cumbersome
than being able to run it on any system.

Thanks in advance,

Edouard.

Which Guix version is it, as reported by ‘guix describe’ or ‘guix
--version’?  (We’ve been providing QEMU 3.0 since August 2018, commit
5dc8437fc0ff3dedf75de2183e3bf9d493e4aa81, so this must be close to
0.15.0.)

This may be a non-deterministic build failure, which shows up because
hydra.gnu.org is currently off-line and so substitutes are unavailable.

Thanks,
Ludo’.

I have a feeling, that this could well happen on the build farm, as it seems
that there is indeterministic behaviour in the testsuite. Having the substitutes
availble would only hide the bug. WDYT?

Please let me know if I can be of assistance. I've tried running the

This bug is very old.  We're now at Guix 1.2.0 and QEMU 5.2.0.  If there

fresh bug report.
