I noticed a module missing for both USB 2 and USB 3. Still not certain that I've got all of the required modules, though. Here is the new image could you also try this one? (if this one does not work I definitely have to come up with a better way than just sending you images and getting you to try them) <https://files.ditigal.xyz/tmp/guix-system-install.rockpro64.2.iso> e5fd5cf77452fe1ae2ee9eba640662cd5d235f830c0c17a4403d22d865c83136 guix-system-install.rockpro64.2.iso Apart from that here is an image with linux-libre-arm64-generic, it's true that that one should support more devices. But on the other hand, it doesn't include isofs support at all. Because of that, to avoid changing kernel configurations now (that's a discussion we should definitely have prior to the next release, but it was just too late for this one), I chose to use the linux-libre and tried to add all the necessary initrd modules. This image is much bigger than the iso because it has no compression. <https://files.ditigal.xyz/tmp/guix-system-install.rockpro64.2.img> 810530b37482f664f9300932b1383d9a586478dd8590087ab8caed04a9a40756 guix-system-install.rockpro64.2.img >> Other than that you can also try flashing the image on an sd card >> instead of a USB. > > The image is nearly 1GB but my largest SD card is 256 MB.

I am pretty sure SATA won't work at the moment. That is probably connected through PCIe and there is no PCIe modules right now. I am not sure if it makes sense to add these to the initrd, I will think about it. The SD card would be the best bet, especially since Julien Lepiller also shared they needed sdhci and sdhci-pltfm, both of those were already present. (and the phy drivers for usb were also already present) Rutherther > > David.
