bug#45867: hurd-vm: custom disk-size ignored

[Jan Nieuwenhuizen]

On current master, setting a bigger disk-size for a childhurd

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
      (service hurd-vm-service-type
               (hurd-vm-configuration
                (disk-size (* 12 (expt 2 30))) ;12GiB
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

is being ignored.  I am suspecting

This system-image included (size disk-size), and here

> +                     (hurd-vm-configuration-os config)))

disk-size goes unused.  So we probably need something like

diff --git a/gnu/services/virtualization.scm b/gnu/services/virtualization.scm
index f435630faf..3ede822183 100644

          (os->image (image-type-constructor type)))

+    (system-image
+     (image (inherit (os->image os))
+            (size disk-size)))))
 
 (define (hurd-vm-port config base)
   "Return the forwarded vm port for this childhurd config."
