Sounds like the thing I just mailed you about. Server DVD and
Workstation netinst started failing on 20180627.n.0. Other images show
some failures by 20180611.n.0, but that may not have been the same
thing (Server netinst failed at post-install boot on that date). There
were no x86 tests between 20180611 and 20180627 unfortunately because
the images were failing to build for all that time.

Yes, I think so. The 6/11 failures look like they are related to something happening during the actual install, but I don't know what the pass/fail criteria are at the different stages. 6/27 and later are definitely failing during boot. I wonder if something else snuckĀ  during the period from 6/11-6/27 when the kernel was failing to build.

Thanks!
