Hi Kristofer,
I actually reached the same error. I have absolutely no idea what's going on,
but I found a way to move on.
Basically, I defined a `dummy-bootloader`. Because I don't know what I'm doing,
I took inspiration of some other well-known blog article talking about running
guix on WSL, notably https://wiki.systemcrafters.net/guix/wsl/.
```
(define dummy-bootloader
(bootloader (name 'dummy-bootloader)
(package
dummy-package)
(configuration-file "/dev/null")
(configuration-file-generator (lambda* rest
(computed-file
"dummy-bootloader"
#~(mkdir #$output))))
(installer #~(const #t))))
```
Then it can be used as follows.
```
(define wsl2-os
(operating-system
(...)
(bootloader (bootloader-configuration
(bootloader dummy-bootloader)))
```
This seems to work for running `guix system reconfigure wsl2.scm` on my
machine. If someone can explain what this new definition changes? And maybe
make some hypothesis about why that would work (and the original wouldn't)?
Best regards.
