I haven't Guix installed.

I'm running Ubuntu and I'm a bit wary of installing Guix on top of it
because I remember the obsessive reporting by apparmor about Guix
attempting to do something

Also, I don't want the package manager, I want the whole distro

That's why I chose to run the image for Qemu, so I could have the whole
thing but without managing (too much) operating systems, which I despise

My idea was that I would have used the configuration file as a starting
point for reconfiguring the machine running in Qemu

But it's not a big deal, I'll wait

Thank you Tobias !
