Hi Awais:

We recently ran a full QA pass and found a problem with installing
genericx86* machines files as Bug #10189 [1].  It appears it might be
related to this or another of your init-install patches.

Since we are approaching M3 closure today this would be a bad issue to
have following us into M3.  

Please review the bug and try to test with genericx86 likely without an
MMC device.

Thanks
  Sau!
