I have an issue with XCode. It crashes as soon as I try to launch it with the error Failed to create CSSymbolicatorRef - corpse still valid ¯_(ツ)_/¯. I had a disk failure a short time ago and reinstalled the OS using recovery and restored from backup. XCode failed right after that. Subsequently I deleted XCode and re-installed, deleted all the caches but still crashing. In desperation I reformatted the disk and installed XCode on a new install of macOS. Still crashing. I've reset NVRAM and SVC, still crashing... Any ideas? I'm completely stumped.

I've installed the Big Sur Beta on a development VM (Parallels on a 10.15.5 host). Initially I upgraded from a Mojave base line. The installation all goes fine and I finally get to the log-in screen of Big Sur. I enter my password and things start whirring but after a minute or so the screen goes black then after another minute or so I'm back at the log in screen again. I've done the oblatory, wait awhile, retries and reboots but still the same result. I've also tried increasing disk size and number of CPU cores in the VM. I repeated the process starting with a Catalina baseline and have finished up with exactly the same result. I have a couple of thoughts. First is this a known problem and secondly is this due to testing on a VM rather than computer? I've not had this issue previously and run VM versions of macOS back to 10.9 for testing.
