I'm by no means an expert on AI these days, but the install aborted (due to the bug you mentioned) and so no cleanup would have taken place (if there even is any in AI). So, no, I wouldn't expect that just restarting AI would clear the filesystem. In fact I'm pretty sure we wouldn't want to do that. Something failed with the previous installation attempt, destroying the filesystem explicitly upon restart could wipe out any diagnostic data that may be available.
