`guix describe` gives the following:
Generation 67 Feb 27 2023 17:41:15 (current)
guix cf9e050
repository URL: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git
branch: master
commit: cf9e0508b26196dc985302776d860a0359652c59
Consider the system configuration given at this url:
https://git.sr.ht/~elevenkb/dotfiles/blob/master/configs/11kb/guix-server.scm
If I run `sudo $(guix system container guix-server.scm)` then my container
works, but if I run `sudo $(guix system container guix-server.scm --network)`
then my container fails to work. I instead get an error which goes like this:
In unknown file:
0 (copy-file "/etc/static/hosts" "/etc/hosts")
ERROR: In procedure copy-file:
In procedure copy-file: Read-only file system
