Thank you, you installed BiocInstaller in R-devel (R-3.4) before 
Bioconductor officially supported R-3.4, and need to manually remove and 
re-install BiocInstaller.

I have updated the online configure, so in a new session, try to load 
the BiocInstaller package and you should now see

Bioconductor version 3.4 is too old for R version 3.4.0; see
   https://bioconductor.org/install/#troubleshoot-biocinstaller

The instructions are to remove BiocInstaller by hand

   remove.packages("BiocInstaller")
   remove.packages("BiocInstaller") # fails, if not then investigate

and install again

   source("https://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
