Ludo',

During the install process after selecting "wifi" there would be a 
prompt saying "Connecting to 'hostname', please wait" and just seemed to 
hang.  Below are selection:
    local: english
    territory: United States
    graphical installer using a terminal based interface
    america
    New_York
    English (US)
    English (US)
    enter "hostname"
    select wifi
    select network
    - prompt "Connecting to 'hostname', please wait" (never prompts for 
password)
    - switch virtual terminals (saved dmesg, guix version, and copied 
messages file [attached])

Note, wifi was working after I installed guix with ethernet cable.  In 
the next week or so I'll try to download 1.1 and see if issue has been 
resolved.

Thanks,
Ryan
