I've just been testing with the master branch, and with the changes I
sent to this bug. Are there any changes on the wip-installer-2 that are
not solely related to the installer (which if I understand correctly is
something more complicated than running guix system init).

Ok, that's good to know. I would guess it's pretty close now, great
work on moving the ISO stuff forward!

From talking to Ludo at the GHM, I think there is some extra steps
needed to make installing from the ISO possible, but I don't yet
understand this. I'll CC Ludo, as he might be able to explain better.
