I ran into a similar issue with a computer I installed Guix on. It would not complete the boot up process. I am not sure if I was experiencing the same issue you are as I did not submit it to a Guix mailing list. I got help solving it on #guix. What worked for me was to add the Linux kernel argument `nomodeset` to my system configuration. In the operating system declaration of the system configuration I added: ``` (kernel-arguments (append (list "nomodeset") %default-kernel-arguments)) ```
