Because guix relies on pivot_root, it doesn't work in initramfs. Could it
be modified to use something else (chroot? switch_root?) to allow for this?

Could you clarify what you’re doing? You’re trying to run guix-daemon
and guix in the initramfs of some distro, is that correct?
I don’t think guix-daemon can do away with ‘pivot_root’ though.
Thanks,
Ludo’.

The clarification was not provided after 15 weeks. Closing.
