Sorry to revive an extra-old topic, however my problem now is exactly 
this – I've purchased the GPD Pocket 3 which is a very nice little 
machine, powerful, and have to use it without a USB dongle. It uses Intel 
AX210 802.11ax (2.4/5/6Ghz), BT 5.2, so needs iwlwifi modules.

I'm running Ubuntu Mate on it in parallel – without any issues.

Now, I've set up Guix System on it without problems.

However am not fluent enough to utilize the above solution to define an 
inheritance for the current Linux kernel from git and put it in 
system.scm to reconfigure the system with it.

Could someone share with me the system.cfg snippet that would enable me 
to load the non-free firmware?

Many thanks.
