Re: Original config from a documentation causes an error with keyboard-layout function

[Adam Mazurkiewicz <trzczy@gmail.com>]

I processed the installation try from usb flash stick. First I formatted a
target partition for the new Guixsd instance with ext4 and labeled it
guixsd. Then I did that follows and put 'guix describe':

root@gnu ~# ifconfig enp2s0 up && \
> dhclient enp2s0 -v
