Subject: Guix Pull - Device or Resource Busy

Hi All,
I have installed the Guix system using the Guix 1.4 image and the graphical installer.
Following directions in the Guix 1.4 manual, I have tried to run the following command as root from within the newly installed and running system.
# guix pull
This produces the following error message.
# guix pull: error: while setting up the build environment: cannot remove real-root directory: device or resource busy
With that error message, the "guix pull" command fails.
I have also run the "guix pull" command with the following options to ascertain the error.
# guix pull --verbosity=3 --debug=5
However, I have been unable to capture the standard screen output for analysis. All attempts to direct the output using pipes "|" or redirection ">" have failed.
Note as well that running the "guix install" command for a package produces a very similar error message.
So, with present Linux knowledge, Guix knowledge, the Guix 1.4 manual and various internet searches as resources, I have been unable to resolve this problem.
Any assistance or insight would be appreciated.
MH
PS - My "config.scm" file used to install and run the system is reproduced below.
