If I try what I described in my original bug report I still (commit
f2d97d5) get a black screen. If I run
$(guix system vm config.scm) -m 6G -enable-kvm
instead it works as expected (I get a login screen). So it looks like
some runtime dependency doesn't make it into the vm-image.
This issue seems limited to this special case (no one else has since
complained about it) so I'll leave this closed.
Regards,
Diego
