FDINST is 16-bit, FDNPKG is 32-bit. I had the same though about caching, memory managers etc. So, even with the following configuration and installing to a physical (inside a vm) drive it has the same or similar issues. Also, please note if all goes well, the tester installs, removes then reinstalls the packages. If the tester catches an error, it completely purges the target tree and retries the install, remove and install process. Repeating it up to 3 times. FDINST occasionally throws more or fewer errors on subsequent install attempts or on occasion, further installs of the same package, result in a system freeze.
