Most likely inside the QEMU machine.

If you=E2=80=99re using =E2=80=98guix system vm-image=E2=80=99, you=E2=80= =99ll have to pass

=C2=A0 =C2=A0--image-size=3DSIZE

where SIZE is the appropriate image size.=C2=A0 Failing to do that, the
command creates a small disk image and things don=E2=80=99t fit in it, henc= e
this error.

To determine what an appropriate size might be, you can do:

=C2=A0 guix size $(guix system build config.scm)

and then add maybe 10% to that (to account for the space taken by file
system metadata, the partition table, etc.)

That said, =E2=80=98guix system vm=E2=80=99 (not =E2=80=98vm-image=E2=80=99= ) should work out-of-the-box,
without having to specify --image-size.

HTH!

Ludo=E2=80=99.

Thank you Ludo, sys= tem vm made it quickly
