--- Comment #1 from Alfonso S. Siciliano <asiciliano@FreeBSD.org> ---
Thank you for the screenshot,

I am quite sure the "guilty" variable (not restarted) is 'DISTRIBUTIONS':
https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/tree/usr.sbin/bsdinstall/distextract/distextract.c#n76

Actually, "not persisted restart" is a known problem.
Other PRs describe similar situations. I fixed some problem in the past.

However, we should implement a real "restart" feature to solve properly the
problem.
