Hey,

I'll try to investigate it soon. The problem seem to be related to cow-store on VM produced by guix system vm. I can reproduce it on "master" by running: guix system vm /gnu/system/install.scm and appending -drive format=raw,file=/home/mathieu/vm-test.img to the produced script. Then, mount /dev/sda1 /mnt herd start cow-store /mnt -> Every command (like ls ou mount) fails because /gnu/store does not seem to be reachable anymore. Is this a known issue, or am I missing something? Thanks, Mathieu
