I've seen this behavior a few times, but didn't get it tracked down.

If the disk container file is non-zero size, the make may have worked.
Otherwise, check the top of console.log, before the spin starts, and see
if there's anything diagnostic there.

This is all normal.  Once you get a system built, you may want to turn
on serial terminal ports (i.e. telnet sessions) by using the -tport
option.
