Hi Ludo,
Thanks to your comment regarding a possible memory corruption issue, I
ran my memory module trough memtest86+, which identified several
problematic addresses. So this was likely a hardware issue.
I tried blacklisting them with the memmap kernel command-line option,
but that didn't fix the issue. Looking at the addresses, I reduced my
memory to 600 MiBs (mem=600M, which seems to solve the issue, though it
makes `guix pull` extremely slow.
I haven't touched that system in a while, so my recollection is a bit
fuzzy. I am going to try again, though. (I would have loved to
experiment on another computer on top of another distro, but wasn't
ready to give guix root access back then).
I think this really was a HW issue, but I will keep you posted.
Thank you for your answers,
Mayeul
