Kernel panic while building VM

Kernel panic while building VM

[Myles English]

Hello,

Trying to build a VM I get a kernel panic.  Any idea why?

Thanks,
Myles

Hello

since Guix 13 I have kernel panics during guix system init, too. It happens  on my Intel J1900 fanless box. Dont know if its just overheating or if its a general problem with the libre kernel. I will test the hardware with Guix 12 at the weekend

I've seen a similar failure when the disk image was too small to fit the
system declaration. Do you get the same error with a larger image size?

This is probably unrelated to the problem here, which was due to the VM
image being too small.

Could you try again and report (1) what you did, (2) the
‘operating-system’ configuration you used, and (3) the error messages
you see and when you see them?

Please stick to 0.13.0.  0.12.0 is relatively old, so you’ll find that
many pre-built binaries are missing, not to mention many security fixes.

Thanks,
Ludo’.

I use the lightweight-desktop.scm just changed user name and partition setup. Here are some screenshots

It’s hard to tell much here.  Is this happening with 0.13.0?  One of the
screenshots shows that Python was being built from source, which is
suspicious.

Thanks,

I used the --fallback option due to network problems I had occasionally. I suspect my internal ethernet controller making problems so for testing I used an usb ethernet connector. For now everything is fine. This time installation finished.

BTW: I was not aware that Guix reboot is a scheme command. I did Ctrl-Alt-Del instead.
Booting with grub failed then ;)

Thank you for your help
