Well, IMHO, the path forward would be to create a system configuration file based; give a look to gnu/system/examples in Guix source for inspiration. :-) Then test that configuration from Ubuntu by generating VM. Once you are more or less happy with your config.scm, then you can run it on bare-metal. Here, you have an incremental path with a simple feedback loop in the comfort of your current environment that already works. :-) Cheers, simon
