OK so it seems this is not related to your GPU but to disk encryption
I cannot reproduce your very same situation: I'm using a manual
partition scheme (not the guided one) since I want to presenve a couple
partitions on my HD
I was able to install and boot Guix on an encrypted BTRFS partition with
no issues, this is what the installer configured for bootloader,
mapped-devices and file-systems:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(bootloader
(bootloader-configuration
(bootloader grub-efi-bootloader)
(target "/boot/efi")
(keyboard-layout keyboard-layout)))
(mapped-devices
(list (mapped-device
(source
(uuid "228371e9-9cd7-4bb5-8976-d65029892b8e"))
(target "guix")
(type luks-device-mapping))))
(file-systems
(cons* (file-system
(mount-point "/")
(device "/dev/mapper/guix")
(type "btrfs")
(dependencies mapped-devices))
(file-system
(mount-point "/boot/efi")
(type "vfat"))
%base-file-systems))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
I first had to insert the LUKS encryption key to let Grub start, then I
had to enter the same key after Grub booted

Please are you able to connect to ssh to your laptop during installation
(before rebooting) [1] and paste here the content of /mnt/etc/config.scm
generated by the installer?
Thanks! Gio'.
[1] you can switch to a console with CTRL-ALT-F3, set the root password
(passwd) and "herd start ssh-daemon"
