It seems Gottfried is looking for a way to keep their Guix System available along other GNU/Linux systems. As Florian already mentioned, the challenge will be in configuring the bootloader. For moving Guix itself, you could copy its root file system using 'cp -a', or opt to reinstall from your config.scm as already mentioned up-thread. Sadly, for the complex part (the bootloader configuration), I'll leave it to someone more knowledgeable than myself to provide concrete answers, but I believe you'll want to read on something called multi-boot. There's a GRUB example here [0]. Good luck! [0] https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub/html_node/Multi_002dboot-manual-config.html -- Thanks, Maxim
