Guixsd 0.15.0 Installation Fail

Guixsd 0.15.0 Installation Fail

When I run "guix system init /mnt/etc/config.scm /mnt" I get a message that
infinitely scrolls across the screen

substitute: guix substitute: warning: while fetching '
https://mirror.hydra.gnu.org/nix-cache-info': 504 ("Gateway Time-out")
substitute: guix substitute: warning: ignoring substitute server at '"
https://mirror.hydra.gnu.org"'

any advice I can get I will take at this point, Thanks.

Hi!

Assembled from several posts:

hydra.gnu.org is currently down and mirror.hydra.gnu.org is just 
proxying it.

See https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2018-10/msg00434.html


Substitute-Server-Authorization:
As described at
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/guix.html#Substitute-Server-Authorization

After `guix archive --authorize < berlin.guixsd.org.pub`
you may run commands with:
`--substitute-urls="https://berlin.guixsd.org`


You may want to add this setting globally and permanently, so you don't 
have to specify it every time you run guix. You can do this by passing 
the option to the guix daemon

- when using GuixSD, modify guix-service in your system configuration, 
by specifying the substitute-urls in the configuration. (see 
guix-configuration in 
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Base-Services.html )


Not applicable in your case:

- when using guix on another distribution with systemd, you can modify 
the the ExecStart line in /etc/systemd/system/guix-daemon.service as 
follows:

ExecStart=/var/guix/profiles/per-user/root/guix-profile/bin/guix-daemon 
--build-users-group=guixbuild 
"--substitute-urls=https://mirror.hydra.gnu.org https://berlin.guixsd.org";

mirror.hydra.gnu.org doesn't work well either, see
https://bugs.gnu.org/33151.  I think your best bet is to only use
https://berlin.guixsd.org.
