This applies to the Guix System installer in git master *without* patches. Deniz at Parabola GNU/Linux-libre discussed a similar issue for Parabola today: Here what would need to be publicized would be how to blacklist the radeon driver at boot, in the case something goes wrong and the user is left with a black screen during the boot of linux-libre. On Parabola adding "modprobe.blacklist=radeon" to the kernel command line does that at boot. This enables users to easily use the installation medias. <https://lists.parabola.nu/pipermail/assist/2019-April/001366.html> Deniz also wrote that this would break HDMI, but HDMI does not work for me in the Guix installer anyway (but possibly it worked for others?)
