This Dell PowerEdge R415 node, "gonzo", has difficulties to be deployed with X-HWE lowlatency i386 kernel (fail rate: 15 out of 19 attempts).

I have tried this manually in the following order:
1. Deploy this system with i386 Xenial lowlatency kernel
2. Install the X-HWE i386 lowlatency kernel (linux-lowlatency-hwe-16.04)

Result:
  * System can be booted with Xenial i386 lowlatency kernel.
  * System seems to be working with X-HWE i386 lowlatency kernel, but the ssh connection will hang:
    $ myssh gonzo
    Warning: Permanently added 'gonzo,10.246.72.31' (ECDSA) to the list of known hosts.

Maybe this is why the system can't enter the deployed state.
