Feb 19 01:26:42 sbsa-ref psplash-systemd[261]: Error unable to open fifo

This means psplash.service did not start or did not yet create it. Can I 
somehow see the
build and boot configuration?

Feb 19 01:27:12 sbsa-ref systemd[1]: 
/usr/lib/systemd/system/psplash-systemd.service:8: Unknown key 
'ConditionFileExists' in section [Unit], ignoring.
Feb 19 01:27:26 sbsa-ref systemd[1]: 
/usr/lib/systemd/system/psplash-systemd.service:8: Unknown key 
'ConditionFileExists' in section [Unit], ignoring.

psplash.service is of type notify and fifo is created before systemd is 
notified, but
the fifo creation could also fail due to other reasons which I can't see from 
the logs.

Fixing the condition will fix the systemd test failure but plsplash and progress
bar may have functional failures.

I will send a patch.

This looks like something completely different:

So these could be fixed by adding util-linux-mkswap to the images instead of
relying on busybox?

I will send a patch.

Link to the builds?
