Re: Help with `guix system reconfigure`

[Tonton]

Hi,

I built a VM from your config. It boots allright, I saw some errors about
files in /etc/ but couldn't catch what they were. I also haven't figured out
how to get at logs of a running VM to check.

Maybe try guix pull followed by guix system build YOUR-CONFIG-FILE.scm
without sudo, I mean as your regular user. It might give you more of an error
message.

maybe.
