Running `guix system image image-minimal.scm` fails with the following
build log:

```build log for partition.img.drv

registering 337 items | [progress bar animation, fails before end]

Does anyone have any pointers on how to debug or fix this? The operating
system builds nicely with `guix system vm`. Building
`gnu/system/examples/bare-bones.tmpl` with `guix system image` also
fails with a similar error and works correctly with `guix system vm`.


```image-minimal.scm
(use-modules
  (gnu)
  (gnu system image))

(define %operating-system
  (operating-system
   (host-name "image-test")
   (bootloader (bootloader-configuration
                (bootloader grub-bootloader)
                (targets '("/dev/sdX"))))
   (file-systems (cons*
                  (file-system
                   (mount-point "/")
                   (device "/dev/sdX1")
                   (type "ext4"))
                  %base-file-systems))))

(image-with-os (raw-with-offset-disk-image)
               %operating-system)
```

Output of `guix describe` just in case, though the error also occured
with the latest guix version when I tested.

```channels.scm
(list (channel
        (name 'guix)
        (url "https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git")
        (branch "master")
        (commit
