* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (default-initrd-modules): Check system name
against %current-target-system first in case we are cross-compiling.

LGTM!

Glad we’re making process on system cross-compilation!  Are you
targeting low-end ARMv7 devices?

Thank you,

Yes as well as more powerful aarch64 boards. I would like to use Guix as
an alternative to various tools such as Yocto/Buildroot at
work. Cross-compiling is the only viable way as target compilation and
qemu-binfmt alternatives are way too slow.

I'll try to resume the rest of the serie soon.

qemu-binfmt might be OK if you get enough substitutes and thus have
little to build locally.

Thanks!
