  This problem is seen on x86 as well, so setting arch to All.

  root@linux:~# uname -a
  Linux cellc02 3.16.0-28-generic #38-Ubuntu SMP Fri Dec 12 17:37:40 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

  Running with a preseed file, the install seems to complete normally in
  spite of these errors seen on the console.
