2026-02-11 build is out!

The desktop environment has been changed to niri + Noctalia shell. It now also starts Guix System installer automatically, though you're expected to finish keyboard layout setup on tty1 first if you do not use QWERTY.

This build also provides (untested) aarch64-linux images.

2026-01-18 build of my Guix System installation LiveCDs ("LiveCDs" section in codeberg.org/hako/Testament) is out! Notably I have finally finished testing Xorg support for NVIDIA proprietary driver! More information on the setup is updated in Nonguix README. Installer used for this build will add the following comments to the generated configuration so you can edit it before installation: ``` ;; Uncomment the following line for NVIDIA proprietary driver support. ;; (nonguix-transformation-nvidia #:configure-xorg? #t) ``` #guix #nonguix

Finished reworking the LiveCDs! Now there're two variants:
- Default
- HiDPI, with a larger console font

No NVIDIA variant, since nouveau + firmware is suffcient for the installation task.

Updated the "LiveCDs" section of codeberg.org/hako/Testament. New images are now placed in Guix Moe's storage. When updating, changes to links and channels.lock will be in the same commit.

The new images provide similiar experience to the official one, additionally with:
- substitutes from Guix Moe, to speed up downloading in slow regions (within the LiveCDs, not added to the installed system)
- Linux and Linux LTS kernel options
- fish shell for manual installation
- simple desktop environment built around niri on tty7

The set-keymap script now also works with the installer: when setting keyboard layout in the installer, it's also applied to other ttys and niri's configuration.

Here're a few issues that may affect the experience and should be avoided if you want to install now:

2026-01-12 build of my Guix System LiveCDs is out!

Source, usage and downloads are available in codeberg.org/hako/Testament (see the LiveCDs section). This build is from commit 12b811db05e1.

In the next build I plan to rework the LiveCDs, integrate guided installer from Guix and add a NVIDIA variant. Hopefully by then I'll be able to update the images monthly, no ETA though ;)

(Work-in-progress) Legacy series (390.xx, 470.xx), aarch64-linux support, improved documentation and verrsion selection support for Nonguix NVIDIA proprietary driver!

https://cache-test.guix.moe is now available for testing. It currently serves substitutes for #Guix and #Nonguix, mirrored from their official publish servers, retaining signing keys.

This new cache-test server uses mirror-substitutes (and store paths from guix-store-paths) to mirror substitutes from any upstream.

If everything goes well, I'll deprecate existing setup on guix.moe mirrors and deploy the new configuration. Feedback welcome!
