There are some issues due to the orcering of when we now start some of the services. After the above change the dbus service starts much earlier on first boot, before some of the other postinstalls have run. This can mean you see errors due to users which have not yet been created by postinstalls (e.g. avahi or xuser) yet the dbus files reference these and its trying to start those services. We're looking at fixing the remaining adduser type postinstalls to address this. I'm not sure if this is related to the problem you were seeing above or not.
