Just those packages would fail to install. The rest of the process would
continue on as normal. I've run into that a couple of times when I've had 3rd
party packages and/or custom kernel packages included on the install list. At
that point it's not be too hard to get another installed package list that's
current and run a diff on it and the previous one, then hand tweak the
install.
