We discussed this on IRC and without seeing more details I can’t tell
what’s wrong.  It would be nice if the person who reported the problem
could copy the full error message (possibly taking a picture of the
screen if that’s more convenient.)

What I can tell is that there’s a substitute for x86_64 for
/gnu/store/m2kasbzay7ngzy5flmh8r4vc1igwdd7q-adwaita-icon-theme-3.24.0
(which corresponds to 0.13.0.)

There’s also a substitute for i686
(/gnu/store/qs27jxbxjpvw5bv49nzw9r91hj00r12j-adwaita-icon-theme-3.24.0) but 
it’s possible that it
wasn’t here before I started fiddling (unlikely though.)

We’ve had reports that two tests from tests/store.scm fail when run on
the unionfs of the installation image, like this one:
<https://bugs.gnu.org/27034>.  I’m not sure where that comes from, but
there’s a genuine issue here.

That said, people installing GuixSD from the image should normally get
substitutes for the ‘guix’ package.  I don’t know why they’re not
getting them here.  Apparently there are substitutes for
/gnu/store/vir3lrwqy50pr8fkaf3m091dgbrja2n6-guix-0.13.0 (x86_64-linux) and 
/gnu/store/xcnrc8lvq7yks3c02cpknphj3n0p2p6r-guix-0.13.0
(i686-linux).
