I successfully installed GNU Guix. The work around I used for this bug is I simply ran `sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda`. Basically, I think the existence of an old GPT partition table is causing problems on a new install though I'm not sure why. Unfortunately, this computer is my daily driver and I need it working so I can't run any more tests at this time.
