I have folloed the instruction in
http://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/guix.html#Emacs-Interface
to get the emacs interface for guix, but there is something missing 
probably.

Installation of emacs and geiser was OK, I changed the path to guix.el 
(there is no /usr/share/ in my guix installation, I had to find guix.el in 
the /gnu/store), after that I can start emacs and "M-x guix-..." but every 
action says "Cannot open load file: no such file or directory 
geiser-mode".

There should probably be also the geiser path in the emacs init file or 
something?

AFAIU the initialization of each package is already defined inside each
package by the author. The way emacs's packaging infrastructure works
goes along the lines (see (elisp) Packaging Basics):

* At installation:

  - Search every Lisp file in the content directory for autoload magic
    comments (*note Autoload::).  These autoload definitions are saved
    to a file named `NAME-autoloads.el' in the package's content
    directory.

  - Byte-compiles every Lisp file in the package.

  - Add the package's content directory to `load-path', and evaluates
    the autoload definitions in `NAME-autoloads.el'.

* At startup:

  - Emacs scans for a predefined directory for NAME-autoloads.el files
    and evaluates them ('package-initialize' function). We could maybe
    exploit 'after-init-hook' or something something similar.

Regards,
Fede
