  • I'm pretty sure I was set up for substitutes, but this was a while ago.

    I did end up replacing my router a few months after that, so it may have just been that my connection was very slow.

    Also, every time I tried it and it didn't work, I had to do a full Pop Os install in order for myguix install media to start working again, which added a few minutes to the process.


  • I was thinking something to do with nonvolitile memory.

    The real problem was that the guided install - guix pull - system reconfigure - reboot process took about three to four hours each time, so I gave up after a few iterations.

    I did try playing around with bios settings a little, but I'm sure I missed some possibilities.


  • I thought that, but I had identical results using the stock install media and the modified nonguix one from systemcrafters.

    The weird thing was that the initial install went fine, even after the first reboot. The problem was the next boot after my first system reconfigure.

    Not only could I not boot my system after that, but I couldn't boot the install media either. The only thing that would work was the installer for the most recent pop os.
