New Guix System LiveCDs (console + desktop) for manual installation!

Pre-built images are available for x86_64-linux:
https://files.boiledscript.com/livecd/

Configurations and more information for these images are in my dotfiles repository (see the "LiveCDs" section). You can build them on your own!

Typical steps for the manual installation of Guix System are available in Guix manual.

Quoting the introduction:
> GNU Guix is a package management tool for and distribution of the GNU system. Guix makes it easy for unprivileged users to install, upgrade, or remove software packages, to roll back to a previous package set, to build packages from source, and generally assists with the creation and maintenance of software environments.

The manual covers many interesting topics and Getting Started is a good entry point. Git repository of GNU Guix is hosted on Codeberg, you can reach the community via various communication channels as well.

The LiveCDs includes proprietary firmwares from the Nonguix channel, you can get help for relevant topics from their communication channels 😉
