Okay, I was just about to report that I successfully built the VM using commit ef33718a5cc486dd34378e6a8fcfcbb920ff7a8a from wip-hurd-vm. The VM started fine and I was able to run the guile shell and the ls shell command. Was going to try to install Emacs next.
For screenshots, is there something equivalent to `cat /proc/version` to show running kernel version?
If you need third party for rebuild/test cycle, just let me know what commit you want me to build.

Hi Christopher,

I am trying to rebuild today. I will report any additional build
failures here if you want to keep this ticket open for a while.
The ‘core-updates’ branch now produces what we had for the announcement
the other day (a VM without Guix itself inside it). We’ve adjusted the
blog post to reflect that:
https://guix.gnu.org/blog/2020/a-hello-world-virtual-machine-running-the-hurd/
And then there’s more crazy stuff on the new ‘wip-hurd-vm’ going on.
Happy hacking! :-)
Ludo’.
