Unfortunately, I can no longer get it to boot. I think the latest system generation should work, and at least one of the previous generations should work. Excluding the generations that I removed, the others don't boot. All I can really gather so far is a call stack, and the message: Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! I'm uncertain that this is something I have done wrong, I'm pretty sure I was using the latest system generation when I ran guix gc, and I'm assuming that it is the garbage collection that has stopped things workin= g. I'm going to try and make some time to see if I can get this system back working again. I'm not sure how realistic this is, but I'm planning to start by using the installation image, and somehow running guix system reconfigure. Has anyone done anything similar before, or have any ideas about how this happened, how to get more information out about why Linux panics, or how to fix it?
