Hi Paul, "Paul Connelly (Student)" skribis: > 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. 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: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- Feb 16 17:28:45 localhost vmunix: [ 0.000000] Linux version 6.0.10-gnu (guix@guix) (gcc (GCC) 10.3.0, GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.37) #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC 1 […] Feb 16 17:33:51 localhost installer[381]: running command ("guix" "system" "init" "--fallback" "/mnt/etc/config.scm" "/mnt") Feb 16 17:34:04 localhost installer[381]: substitute: Feb 16 17:34:07 localhost installer[381]: substitute: ^[[Kupdating substitutes from 'https://ci.guix.gnu.org'... 0.0% Feb 16 17:34:07 localhost installer[381]: substitute: ^[[Kupdating substitutes from 'https://ci.guix.gnu.org'... 0.3% Feb 16 17:34:07 localhost installer[381]: substitute: ^[[Kupdating substitutes from 'https://ci.guix.gnu.org'... 0.6% […] Feb 16 17:34:10 localhost installer[381]: substitute: ^[[Kupdating substitutes from 'https://bordeaux.guix.gnu.org'... 98.9% Feb 16 17:34:10 localhost installer[381]: substitute: ^[[Kupdating substitutes from 'https://bordeaux.guix.gnu.org'... 100.0% Feb 16 17:34:10 localhost installer[381]: Feb 16 17:34:11 localhost installer[381]: ^[[1m27.1 MB will be downloaded […] Feb 16 17:36:13 localhost installer[381]: substitute: ^[[Kupdating substitutes from 'https://ci.guix.gnu.org'... 91.9% Feb 16 17:36:13 localhost last message repeated 2 times […] Feb 16 17:36:34 localhost installer[381]: substitute: ^[[Kupdating substitutes from 'https://bordeaux.guix.gnu.org'... 100.0% Feb 16 17:36:34 localhost installer[381]: Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: ^[[1;35mThe following derivations will be built: Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: ^[[0m ^[[2m/gnu/store/d7y2ws6khc3vwxig10ransz2rjm2r4rn-^[[0mgnome-system-monitor-42.0.drv Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: ^[[2m/gnu/store/9c6piv330wp9ph7df68n80ig0f8zj99n-^[[0mlibrsvg-2.50.7.drv Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: ^[[2m/gnu/store/ndd85agyp1r75q98ljmjy7nvys4m7gpa-^[[0mrust-1.60.0.drv Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: ^[[2m/gnu/store/64q9r8mq6ak4jpriswq61g3n6cdhd1mk-^[[0mrust-1.59.0.drv Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: ^[[2m/gnu/store/ik7ifm27ypaab1c2q7amawc6cwap3is3-^[[0mrust-1.58.1.drv Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: ^[[2m/gnu/store/5c88c47v73imc88gqhn8b9bls75f27dq-^[[0mrust-1.57.0.drv Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: ^[[2m/gnu/store/f8a0l2ivqsascss7g1zabq3bizn1g7va-^[[0mrust-1.56.1.drv Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: ^[[2m/gnu/store/5gghj8m2ppnwk9nj7fx1a53fri2qg17g-^[[0mrust-1.55.0.drv Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: ^[[2m/gnu/store/lh7ra87mjhbr14rr6scm3yiyc0i5sps9-^[[0mrust-1.54.0.drv Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: Feb 16 17:36:38 localhost installer[381]: ^[[2m/gnu/store/f4x2s9g8gcdcjjcrbj810qmpnydy3yrp-^[[0mgnome-control-center-42.4.drv […] Feb 16 17:45:09 localhost installer[381]: ^[[Kbuilding /gnu/store/lh7ra87mjhbr14rr6scm3yiyc0i5sps9-rust-1.54.0.drv...

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.

Can you confirm that this is the case? Thanks, Ludo’.
