On some but not all boots of the installer, I get no internet
connection.

This may be a quirk of my hardware. Can others reproduce? Maybe this
is not a Guix bug.

I have not encountered this on an installed system yet, but perhaps I
just have not rebooted often enough. Even though wpa_supplicant is
running, `ip link` reports the Ethernet link enp4s0 is down. This
machine is a PC with RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet
Controller (rev 06), according to lspci. On successful boots the link
is up.

Regards,
Florian
