Looks like you are running into many of the problems I had when I
installed Guix on a computer.

If you were able to manually use nomodeset in Grub then you should be
able to add that snippet for the Linux kernel argument nomodeset that I
shared and reconfigure your system.  Then you will not need to manually
enter nomodeset in Grub each time you boot.
