This is definitely a problem. It seems that the Linux kernel already started up so this is not a bootload= er problem but rather a problem with the Linux kernel. There have been lots a= nd LOTS of amdgpudrmfb changes in the Linux kernel lately - but our GuixSD release is pretty old. There should be a new release soon - the 0.14.0 release is from Dec 2017 and the Linux kernel from back then had some problem modesetting AMD cards.
