Just after the kernel installed, I installed nvidia-331-dev, I observed that the subsequent reboot proceeded smoothly with no issues.

This differs from previous experiences with this "nvidia-331 kernel module failed to build" bug.

Previously several reboot attempts had to be made before a successful boot would occur.. with subsequent error messages after logging in.
