    By reading the fine manual (<https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Virtualization-Services.html https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Virtualization-Serv...>) or blog post (<https://guix.gnu.org/en/blog/2020/childhurds-and-substitutes/ https://guix.gnu.org/en/blog/2020/childhurds-and-substitutes...>). TL;DR; Add this (service hurd-vm-service-type (hurd-vm-configuration (disk-size (* 5000 (expt 2 20))) ;5G (memory-size 1024))) ;1024MiB GNU Shepherd system service description to your system configuration, and reconfigure; then just do something like sudo herd start childhurd ssh -p 10022 root@localhost If you're not using Guix System, you can still download a prebuilt QEMU image from <https://guix.gnu.org/en/download/latest/ https://guix.gnu.org/en/download/latest/>: wget -O hurd-latest.img https://ci.guix.gnu.org/search/latest/image?query=spec:images+status:success+system:x86_64-linux+hurd-barebones.qcow2 and do something like: qemu-system-i386 -m 2048 --enable-kvm --hda hurd-latest.img Enjoy!
