This is a sign that too much data was written to the unionfs that sits on the root file system. Could it be because you forgot to run ‘deco start cow-store /mnt’? > second attempt at installation failed with "no permissions" when copying > pata_* kernel modules to /gnu/store/*-linux-libre-3.17.2/. That is weird. Do you remember at what point that happened? Was it at the end of the ‘guix system init config.scm /mnt’ run? Files and directories under /gnu/store are meant to be immutable. > on restarting the laptop and booting from the h.d.d, the reboot stops > at the guile-user prompt. the backtrace shows the following: > > In /gnu/store/*-module-import/gnu/build/linux-boot.scm: > 385:7 2 (#<procedure 1e943c0 at /gnu/store/... > In srfi/srfi-1.scm: > 619:17 1 (for-each #<procedure load-linux-module* (file)> ... Does it show an actual error below that? Could you post your OS config? Thanks for the report! Ludo’.
