Hello! My name is Tatiana.

I have insta= lled guix=C2=A0for the first time and noticed that the installation script = at=C2=A0https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/etc/guix-insta= ll.sh=C2=A0did not work for me. So, I had to make some modifications.

There was a problem with the path to root user home= directory. Below I provide diff output for original script and my modified= script.

= 266c266,267
<=C2=A0= =C2=A0 =C2=A0ln -sf /var/guix/profiles/per-user/root/guix-profile /root/.g= uix-profile
---=
>=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0ln -= sf /var/guix/profiles/per-user/root/guix-profile \
>=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 ~root/.guix-pr= ofile
268c269
<=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0GUIX_P= ROFILE=3D"/root/.guix-profile"
---
>=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0GUIX_PROFILE=3D"${HOME}/.guix-profile"

These changes allowed me to install gu= ix=C2=A0via the script.

P. S.
I am reall= y a newcomer to the guix community. And still not sure how everything=C2=A0= works here. Sorry If my post's format is not appropriate.
