Hello,

trying to build a disk image on armhf on guix git has been failing for

bug#30825: Building disk-image fails

[Andreas Enge]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 339 bytes --]

I am attaching my configuration file as passed to
   ./pre-inst-env guix system disk-image lime.scm
I am trying to create a GuixSD image to be run on the Olimex Lime system.

When I comment out the line "initrd" (since the module does not exist
on x86_64), a disk image is created on x86_64.

What could I do to help debug this?

Andreas

Building an image on ARM, *that’s* bleeding edge!  :-)

Could you do:

  guix gc --references /gnu/store/vd8bx5jd868mnhm0mdj8zgjsvjakzh4y-disk-image.drv | grep disk-image-builder

and try to run the qemu-system-arm command that appears there with the
arguments that from gnu/build/vm.scm line 163?

Mathieu came up with that code and might have a better idea though.  :-)

Thanks,
Ludo’.

That how I debug this part of the code, so let's wait for the answer :)

That's no longer relevant as "disk-image" are now produced without
resorting to virtual machines.

Thanks,
