Subject: Modify how to connect to network in GuixSD graphical installer

Hi folks,
I try to install GuixSD into a kvm-based VM. I use a graphical tool (I
assume it' s virt-manager) to get started. I follow the GuixSD
installation with the graphical installer. When it comes to network
connectivity I get some problems. I' m able to establish internet
connectivity when I open the console via STRG-ALT-F3 and enter (real
values are hidden)
ifconfig eth0 xxx.yyy.zzz.aaa netmask 255.255.255.255
route add aaa.bbb.ccc.254 dev eth0
route add default gw aaa.bbb.ccc.254
# use OVH nameserver which is close to me:
echo 'nameserver 213.186.33.99' >> /etc/resolv.conf
After those commands now I' m able to successfully run
ping -c 3 gnu.org
I feel that the graphical installation would be able to complete if it
could manage to get connected to the network. I don't want to run the
complete manual shell-based installation because only the step with
establishing network connectivity fails.
I' m wondering if it' s possible for me to "manipulate" the graphical
installer and add the commands outlined above? Is the graphical
installer based on some shell scripts which I can modify?
Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
Salutations distinguées,
A scheener Grüeß,
Bescht Gréiss,
Kind regards,
Meikel
