bug#40583: guix-system-install-1.0.1.i686 fails to build amdgpu

[ryan]

Hello Ludo,

I tried installing guix-system-install-1.1.0rc2.i686-linux.iso. 
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to use this version either.  The graphical 
installer isn't visible due to the noise.  I also had some issues 
getting the logs off the eeepc, but dmesg ended with the following lines.

[   27.510600] [drm:intel_cpu_fifo_underrun_irq_handler [i915]] *ERROR*

Not sure if it's really enough info to help.

Take Care,

Ryan
