[SoaS] Kernel Panic on EXT4 in SoaS when installing GCC

There are two issues here:
1. ext4 read errors
2. the kernel attempting to kill init

#1 looks like overlay corruption [1], whereas #2 is probably due to the
kernel going crazy on OOM (Out-Of-Memory). Allocating more RAM to the VM
and/or adding swap might help with #2.
