selecting the layout.
This seems also strange (even if I must confess I've never grepped for
s-s-d lines before):

And that last line pops up frequently in the rest of the log.
I'm not exactly sure what led to this, but there's definitely something
fishy in this installation process. The fact some directories seem to be
missing early isn't reassuring, to be honest. Could this be an artifact
of the say creative way to start the installer?
