Hi Dan, so for the first kernel (linux- image-4.13.13-00940-gf16e2bbbddee_4.13.13-00940-gf16e2bbbddee- 24_amd64.deb), it failed after some 10 minutes. The outputs are:

Will post the second kernel soon. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1711407 Title: unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in linux source package in Trusty: In Progress Status in linux source package in Xenial: In Progress Status in linux source package in Zesty: In Progress Status in linux source package in Artful: In Progress Status in linux source package in Bionic: In Progress Bug description: This is a "continuation" of bug 1403152, as that bug has been marked "fix released" and recent reports of failure may (or may not) be a new bug. Any further reports of the problem should please be reported here instead of that bug. -- [Impact] When shutting down and starting containers the container network namespace may experience a dst reference counting leak which results in this message repeated in the logs: unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 1 This can cause issues when trying to create net network namespace and thus block a user from creating new containers.
