How can I download it? >=20 > I guess that part of the answer to my question is "build it yourself" [1]= , right?! >=20 > [1]: https://guix.gnu.org/en/manual/devel/en/html_node/Building-the-Insta= llation-Image.html As I was reinstalling my computer at work and I was in a bit of a hurry, I had created 2 USB stick installers: - 1 that I built myself from the latest master; and - 1 that I downloaded from the website for the previous release. I went for the full disk encryption everything on one partition! I selected no Window Manager as I=E2=80=99m a happy Sway user and it=E2=80= =99s not in the list. The installer completed successfully and I rebooted. Grub asked me right away my passphrase and=E2=80=A6 it did not work! =F0=9F= =98=B1 After several attempts, I figured out that the keyboard layout was apparently set to `qwerty` even though I had selected `b=C3=A9po AFNOR` during the configuration. When I eventually typed my passphrase in `querty` Grub started and boot my system and=E2=80=A6 I had to type the passphrase a second time, but, fortunately this time in `b=C3=A9po`! I checked the `config.scm` and the layout was properly set in the bootloader declaration. I then reconfigured my `guix home` and logged back and=E2=80=A6 the script that runs on first login failed for `XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` was not set! I checked and `/run/user/1000` was not even present. I was already 1 hour in and running late on something I had to do for a cli= ent so=E2=80=A6 I decided to re-install with the installer from the previous re= lease! So much for testing the latest installer! =F0=9F=98=9E I ran into the same keyboard layout with Grub, so I guess it=E2=80=99s a bug that is not specific to the new installer. I than reconfigured my system and my home and=E2=80=A6 *voil=C3=A0*, I was = back=E2=80=A6 home! So, the `XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` error might be related to the current installer!? I=E2=80=99ll definitively give it another try, but in less=E2=80=A6 stressf= ul circumstances. I=E2=80=99ll dedicate a spare disk and use my Thinkpad as I can easily swap= the disk without having to unscrew everything. If this setup is as convenient as I think it should be, than I can dedicate some time more often to testing the installer. That=E2=80=99s all for me for today! Regards, --=20 Tanguy
