Kernel panic'd while installing the base.tar.xz set at 64% (133MiB copied)
It printed out these errors (without the backticks)
`
346.1299803] panic: pool_redzone_check: [buf1k] 0x00 != 0x66
[ 346.1299803 ] cpu0: Begin traceback...
[ 346.1299803 ] cpu0: End traceback...

db{0}>
`
And if I give it q it just restarts
