>Description:
When unpacking all sets on aarch64 (in a Fusion VM), an attempt is made to unpack the dtb set, which overflows the boot partition (it seems to be 64 sectors by default). dtb isn't needed under Fusion.
>How-To-Repeat:
Unpack sets on aarch64 install via sysinst
>Fix:
Either don't automatically install dtb sets when not needed (which might be a tad difficult a priori), or make the /boot partition a tad larger
