Subject: bug#60010: [version 1.4.0] AMD screen stays black; modprobe fails

Hi Florian,

I don't think there's a race issue with the files being available:
shepherd should start after system activation (so /run/current-system
exists), and after /gnu/store was mounted in the early userspace.

You could also probably try logging the system* call in some temporary
log file, by using some bash redirection (or with-current-output-port
and friends).

By the way, why is the modprobe binary inside a #+?  The target will want
to be able to run the binary itself, right?  Shouldn't it be #$?

Best,
