I've started on this process but it's new to me so I'm a bit lost here.
I added emacs to the package list of my existing real config.scm, the one
at /etc/config.scm, then ran the guix system vm command on it. I read up a
bit
on what the command does, and I *think* I've now created a qemu-compatible
image that I now have to boot with qemu and it should be like my exact
system
minus user profile packages. I've never used qemu so I'm a bit intimidated
there,
but I plan to try to figure this out soon.
