Hey Chhristopher,

please see my inline replies.

Can you give some details on the exact failure?

Besides that we know (and this is actually the reason why there is still no official
Node 3.5 release) that there are issues with a lot of hardware, due to changes to
udev, device-mapper, multipath, and kernel. And it took some time to really
identify and solve those issues with changes in our code.
Some recent patches (which landed just before and after christmas), are
addressing these issues.

We are currently in progress of giving this patches some wider testing,
but we are optimistic that these changes will address most of the hardware problems.

And we'll also do another scratch build to allow you to test those patches as well.

There are many ways to help. Testing - like you did - are an important (but sometimes
painful) aspect, and I really appreciate that you continue to test!

So as mentioned above, there will be a new scratch build with more fixes related to
hardware support, and please watch this list for the link to the build.

That build will also pickup some recent hosted-engine fixes.

Thanks
fabian
