Good day,
Just trying to install Guix as a standalone OS , core i5 4460, on SSD, graphics intel 460. I have submitted installer-dump-8deefb3d. I hope it helps.
Regards

It’s perfect, thank you for reporting the problem.

The system log in that dump shows that ‘guix system init’ ended up
building Rust and gnome-system-monitor (instead of downloading pre-built
binaries), and it failed to build Rust, which is one of these
dependencies:

It’s not entirely clear why this happened.

Could it me that network connection was lost, perhaps temporarily,
during the installation, around 17:36?

That could have led Guix to think that pre-built binaries for these were
unavailable.

Substitutes seem to be available for these:

But what’s surprising is that I get different derivations that those
shown above (on x86_64):

But then, I see this warning:

And indeed, it seems you’re actually building for i686 (32-bit) instead
of x86_64 (64-bit):

Toggle snippet (9 lines)

/gnu/store/z9q5dgj9alcykkxjfyp4s1pfj5rsbrg7-gnome-control-center-42.4.drv

So in short, it looks like you picked the i686 installation image, when
in fact you should have taken the x86_64 image at

Can you confirm that this is the case?

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Dear Ludo’,
Thank you for your response and walking me through the log file <educational in it’s own right>
I can confirm my homer-simpson-style error as being not using the 64bit OS..
The system is installed and the install process was a very different and enjoyable experience :)
Thank you .
Paul.
