I gave up because my DVD-drive stopped reading discs and instead makes gentle
tapping sounds and three short low-pitched buzzes for thirty seconds before
ejecting any inserted media. Happens at both the OEM bootloader stage and after
Trisquel is fully booted. It's not a Guix problem -- it's my personal hardware
problem now.

I expect that you may wish to close the issue to tidy up, and I accept that
outcome.

Thanks,
Calvin
