This seems to be normal for GuixSD. I don't have much knowledge about
how the kernel and drivers here are packaged and configured, maybe some
/dev/ devices are left out or we have more restriction than 'standard'
systems. With libreboot and Gentoo, or at least with coreboot and Gentoo
dmidecode worked… I think. I know that it works when I flash from ubuntu
livedisk.
Output for me (if not already written in my logs) is this:
# dmidecode 2.12
SMBIOS 2.7 present.
8 structures occupying 386 bytes.
Table at 0x7DAA0020.
/dev/mem: Operation not permitted
Table is unreachable, sorry.
