The full log is here:

The first boot sequence from lines 1-182 works.

The second from 188-1182 has the problem.

If the kernel is at fault then I would expect to see the
"About to execute: /bin/systemctl --force reboot" line
and a failure to reboot.

But given that line is not output I suspect its more
likely to be an issue with systemd not getting to that
point. And question is what stops this happening?
