I try to boot from usb with the latest Guix on Asus K50C, specifications [1].

Guix shows black screen after some kernel lines on boot.
I tried to edit Grub entry deleting modprobe.blacklist=radeon, but got nothing.
Will you offer me how to install Fuix on Asus K50C?

I have switched to another tty and install it now. but it is not useful.
I think it looks strange when you're seeing black screen after boot messages.

Can you try adding

nomodeset

after or in place of modprobe.blacklist=radeon?

This should turn off any Intel modesetting, if this is what causes this.

If not, can you press Ctrl+Alt+F3 to switch to a shell?

Regards,
Florian

nomodeset not helped.
yes, ctrl_alt+f3 switched to another tty. I can install another console.
