    More information required (as almost always):
    - type and model of maxhine?
    - dmesg output from 4.11 (or 4.10)
    - describe in detail your buildworld problems (and any other problems),
    specifically any error messages you might get.

    Have you ruled out hardware problems? By running memtest86 for example?
    (Yes, I know that 4.10 installs ok. That proves almost nothing.)

    People on this list can probably suggest things to try that will help
    you towards that goal, but so far I haven't found any mind readers on
    this list. You will have to give us all information in the normal way.

    And you are not running out of space during buildworld?
