I get the same error here with windows 10.

relevant dmesg excerpt:

I wish I could he;p, as I see this is an old issue and try to be more active, but I don't have any computers with Windows.

Hello, unfortunately I don't have access to Windows as well at the moment to test this.

@vigilancetech-com, I am not sure if you were able to resolve this problem... however I ran into two problems following the wsl instructions, the second one may resolve your issue.

1. the guix binary wget was not working, resulting in output saying it was "corrupted"

• Resolution - manually download the binary and place it into /tmp ... use the same wsl command, just replace the string with "cd /tmp && wget url-to-guix-binary-here"

2. The error vigil posted, it mentions timezone... this is a required field in the operating-system record

• Resolution - place (timezone "your-time-zone-here") inside the "(operating-system...)" located in the wsl.scm file

Also for future reference to anyone that stumbles on this, at the time of writing, there are 5 patches you can find here that apparently setup guix for wsl2 .... but I have no idea how to apply them.
