I am not running this in a chroot.
I am afraid the explanation of what I was doing was a bit unclear. I
was able to reproduce the error with the following steps:
$ mkdir test
$ cd test
$ qemu-img create -f raw test.img 7G
$ cfdisk test.img
I selected gpt and wrote two partitions: the first one with a size of 1M
and type BIOS boot, the second with a size of 7G and type Linux
filesystem.
$ sudo losetup --partscan --show --find test.img
/dev/loop1
$ sudo mkfs.ext4 -L my-root /dev/loop1p2
$ sudo mount /dev/loop1p2 /mnt
$ sudo mkdir /mnt/etc
$ sudo sh -c "sed 's#/dev/sdX#/dev/loop1#g' ../.config/guix/latest/gnu/system/examples/bare-bones.tmpl > /mnt/etc/config.scm"
$ sudo guix system init /mnt/etc/config.scm /mnt
The following derivation will be built:

guix system: error: failed to register '/gnu/store/2g4dzfcs6nf906d7jl6q225llmnv7krl-linux-libre-4.15' under '/mnt'
copying to '/mnt'...
It does not matter that it is a loopback device. The same thing happens
if I try to install it on a USB flash drive.
The issue seems to be that there is no
d4wwx93gqizx132zjk7h1ir7rzph0pig-guix-0.12.0-10.ba2260d/
in my store. All I could find was this:
