I found a solution to building bash-mesboot0 in bug #49985 in mounting /tmp as tmpfs, as noted by Ludo'. I then saw the error building binutils-mesboot0 as in bug #41264, for which Mathieu proposed an idea for fixing Mes, still awaiting implementation. As a temporary fix the same tmpfs trick works when bind mounting /gnu and /var/guix onto the /tmp tmpfs. This should work for my workflow, and I am glad to see that others have continued to attempt to bootstrap from source without substitutes. Greg
