Not reproducible using the latest Guix:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix system build /tmp/os.scm
/tmp/os.scm:12:14: warning: the 'target' field is deprecated, please use 'targets' instead
/tmp/os.scm:5:0: error: missing root file system
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Closing.

Thanks!

Maxim
