Hi Guix!

After the recent pull and system reconfigure I've started experiencing
guix-daemon not starting up after the system boot.

Hi,

I've finally could resolve it after fixing the system config where I had
to specify `dependencies` parameter and add additional Linux Kernel
modules.

`config.scm`

...

  (initrd-modules (append (list "raid456"
                                "xfs")
                          %base-initrd-modules))
...
  (mapped-devices (list (mapped-device
                         (source (list "/dev/sda1" "/dev/sdb1"))
                         (targets (list "/dev/md0"))
                         (type raid-device-mapping))))
...
                       (file-system
                         (mount-point "/mnt/library")
                         (device "/dev/md0")
                         (type "xfs")
                         (dependencies mapped-devices))
...
