I'm installed GuixSD using desktop config.
Gnome/Xfce desktop is garbled cause of missing Japanese fonts.
And missing /etc/grub.d and grub commands.  I edited /boot/grub/grub.cfg
directly to be enable multiboot.

Otherwise is OK.  Thank you.

Thanks a lot for your feedback. 

Would you be willing to share your config.scm so we can help debug your
issues?

My knowledge of special fonts in guix is very low but others might have
succeded with getting japanese fonts to work by tweaking their
config.scm.

Regarding multiboot, I tried myself some months ago and it worked fine
after tweaking of my config.scm. Did you specify a custom
bootloader-configuration? (see info guix --search menu-entries).

Here is the example from the manual:
Should you want to list additional boot menu entries via the
menu-entries field above, you will need to create them with the
menu-entry form. For example, imagine you want to be able to boot
another distro (hard to imagine!), you can define a menu entry along
these lines:

(menu-entry
  (label "The Other Distro")
  (linux "/boot/old/vmlinux-2.6.32")
  (linux-arguments '("root=/dev/sda2"))
  (initrd "/boot/old/initrd"))

Thank you for your advice.

At first it's my first installation of GuixSD. My config.scm is edited at
locale, users, file-systems only from original desktop-config.scm.

My knowladge of guixsd configuration is not enogh to make my own
configuration yet. but my expectation is that I could ajdust system
configuration according to ordinal way of postinstallation.

For instance, locale setting at config.scm is to install additional fonts
according to locale or config of multiboot is that I could edit
/etc/grub.d/40_custom for postinstallation.

Cause of I don't know guixsd way yet.

This won’t work on a Guix system, because it does not generally consult
files in /etc.  Most system configuration files are generated when
running “guix system init” (or “guix system reconfigure”) using the
information provided in the system configuration file.

Could you please share the config.scm file that you used?
