If it's really nnondeterministic, it's what's called a mandelbug.

When booting the new kernel, it fails the same way every time.

Very deterministic.

mount: /boot/efi: unknown filesystem type 'vfat'.

What I don't remember is what this multi-stage install-reboot was trying to accomplish.

Looking back in messages or journalctl, I don't see anything.

But it was doing something explicitly.
