Multiple tries to install Guix on a ASRock Beebox N3000/S/BB (Celeron

retitle 54655 installer: uuid->string failure backtrace (again, squared)
merge 54655 53380
thanks

Looks like a duplicate of <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/53380>.  Does the
latest installer work?

Greetings,
Maxime.

The 'pcspkr' problem looks like <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/48343>,
maybe a similar work-around is possible here.  Though FWIW, ideally the
error shouldn't have happened in the first place, no work-around should
be necessary ...

Greetings,
Maxime.

This has been seen before:
<https://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2019-01/msg00052.html>
(see end of e-mail).

Possibly relevant:
