Hello,

Oleg Pykhalov <go.wigust@gmail.com> skribis:

> During 'guix system reconfigure' I got a kernel panic.

Can you show the exact command and its output?

A user-land program is not supposed to be able to cause a kernel panic;
if it does, that=E2=80=99s a kernel bug.

But perhaps you got the kernel panic *after* rebooting in the
reconfigured system?  That could well be a GuixSD bug, indeed.

I=E2=80=99m not sure I understand what happened.  Could you copy/paste comm=
ands
and outputs, or transcribe what happened?

TIA,
