Hi,

Mathieu Othacehe <address@hidden> skribis:

I would rather not override ‘linux-libre’.  I find it quite useful to be
able to ‘guix system vm’ with a custom kernel; that’s one of the things
one might want to test in a VM before rebooting.

What was the use case and rationale for you?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
