Hey Ludo!

In the bug report https://issues.guix.gnu.org/57983 capturing the 'guix
system init' output highlighted a "guix substitute" crash. So it does
seem like a useful mechanism, especially while 56005 is still open.
Now the current situation is also not really acceptable. What about
hiding the "guix system init" output completely and display a progress
bar page instead?
Thanks,
Mathieu
