bug#20497: GuixSD installation - Build of system.drv failed

[Jeffrey Serio]

Hello,

Myself and at least one other are having a problem with GuixSD installation.  I 
am attempting to install it to a 
VDI via VirtualBox while the other person is trying to install it to his 
regular HDD; however, we both encounter 
the same issue.  Here is what IRC user marxy said in #guix:
        
        "I've attempted installing GuixSD a few times on the same PC (Different 
USBs, re-downloaded the image, etc.) 
        and always get the same error-- that the build of system.drv failed. 
I'm not exactly sure where to go from 
        this error message, though, and I was wondering if someone did... 
http://pastebin.com/3vG5GE4f";
        
I thought I would raise the issue in this list so as to make it visible in the 
archives.  Any help on this 
matter would be appreciated.  If you need any information about my hardware or 
setup environment, please let me 
know.  Please also let me know if there is anything else I could do to help 
solve the issue.

Thank you,
Jeffrey
