This will link the system profile to /run/current-system, you have to create /run or symlink it to private/var/run. If you use a symlink you'll probably also want to add services.activate-system.enable = true; to your configuration.

NOTE: the system activation scripts don't overrwrite existing etc files, etc files like /etc/bashrc won't be used by default. Either modify the existing file to source/import the one from /etc/static or remove the file.
