Subject: Initializing a 64bit system using guix on a 32bit OS
Date: Thu, 21 May 2015 23:04:06 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87siappuix.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)

Hello, I have Guix installed on a 32-bit "ArchLinux", and I use the
following command to “deploy” a 64-bit GuixSD:

$ guix system init --no-grub --system=x86_64-linux my-os-config.scm /mnt/guix

However, eventually it fails with the following output:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
...
downloading `/gnu/store/qf803k3npvn8632vssc4g3zp0s5klghv-modprobe' from `http://hydra.gnu.org/nar/qf803k3npvn8632vssc4g3zp0s5klghv-modprobe' (0.0 MiB installed)...

guix system: error: build failed: a `x86_64-linux' is required to build `/gnu/store/zckxg5v0pdxb22kyl6jrzawj1wwrfjby-locale.drv', but I am a `i686-linux'
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

So I'm wondering is there a way to init a 64-bit system from a 32-bit
one or perhaps it's just not possible?

Thanks in advance,
Alex
