You can help by: 1. Testing the binary tarball on the distro of your choice. You can download <https://guix.gnu.org/install.sh> and uncomment the ‘GNU_URL’ variable assignment that refers to alpha.gnu.org. It should pick up 1.4.0rc1 automatically. 2.

Please report success to guix-devel@gnu.org, and report bugs and annoyances to bug-guix@gnu.org. Thanks in advance! Ludo’.

Hurd can be used with QEMU on Linux-based Guix System; see the childhurd section in the manual. However, I tried and somewhat failed to run on my real hardware (a Beebox mini PC): When booting, the Hurd runs an rc script which freezes. I make /dev/sda1 an ext2 filesystem and use a slightly modified /run/current-system/profile/share/guile/site/3.0/gnu/system/examples/bare-hurd.scm as the template for a manual installation (with the usual steps from the Guix manual). Note: e2fsprogs is needed for manual installation but is not installed in the rc1 installer image; a bug <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/58239>. (Thank you for making me notice the bug!) After these preparations, I run: guix system init /mnt/etc/config.scm /mnt --target=i586-pc-gnu --skip-checks Then a last step: Open `guix repl` and run ,use (gnu build hurd-boot) (make-hurd-device-nodes "/mnt") It installs and runs somewhat iff I edit the GRUB boot options (with the E key in the boot menu) to boot from sd0s1 instead of hd0s1, on every boot. If I forget to do this, I need to run `fsck.ext2 /dev/sda1` from the installer image before I can boot the already installed Hurd again. Anyway, it starts /gnu/store/38sb8h…-system/rc, which freezes. Also note that the Hurd release shipped with Guix has known security issues (see Sergey Bugaev’s writeups; there has not yet been a new mig release since and Guix would need it for newer Hurd, I think). Note: These instructions are the result of trial and error. I am not a hurd user (yet) and don’t know details. Regards, Florian ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

I guess some usual, guix pull --branch=version-1.4.0 guix system reconfigure then guix pull --roll-back guix system reconfigure Well, I think it should be possible using “guix time-machine”, something like, guix time-machine --branch=version-1.4.0 -- system reconfigure but then I do not know how it goes for switching back.

You can also roll back to the previous system generations with: guix system roll-back > > Well, I think it should be possible using “guix time-machine”, something > like, > > guix time-machine --branch=version-1.4.0 -- system reconfigure > > but then I do not know how it goes for switching back. I've not tried guix time-machine to reconfigure a system, but once it is done, the same "guix system roll-back" should work for switching back to your previous system generation (pre-1.4.0-branch).
