As you may have seen in <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2024-11/msg00259.html>, I succeeded in building a 32bit installer from commit --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- commit cd26d76fedb7ab13ad91bd5dcfce119892b8e62e news: Add entry for the Guix survey. --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- using this extra patch --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- diff --git a/gnu/system/install.scm b/gnu/system/install.scm index 4de903c59b..35c4923627 100644 --- a/gnu/system/install.scm +++ b/gnu/system/install.scm @@ -521,6 +521,7 @@ (define installation-os ;; non-functional: ;; <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2019-03/msg00441.html>. ;; Thus, blacklist it. + (kernel linux-libre-5.15) (kernel-arguments '("quiet" "modprobe.blacklist=radeon,amdgpu")) (file-systems --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- because with the default 6.x kernel, my X60 panics.

So yeah, YMMV. Greetings and good luck!
