Brief Description
DC Debian: Subcloud remote install - root parameter from grub console is not set correctly
Note:
This issue might be an environment issue (something that might not be under our control)
Condition to reproduce the issue: plug a USB on the subcloud (can be a wiped USB) and run remote subcloud install
results: root parameter, from grub, is set to boot from USB device rather than from the virtual CD media inserted by RVMC

error: you need to load the kernel first.Press any key to continue... Failed to boot both default and fallback entries.Press any key to continue...
The workaround is to set root to "cd1", which is the virtual CD media
set root=cd1
Severity
<Minor: System/Feature is usable with minor issue>
Note: we can set grub/root to boot from virtual CD device
Steps to Reproduce
Plug a USB in the server
run remote subcloud install
Expected Behavior
Remote subcloud install should complete successfully, the grub parameters should be set up correcly independently if we have a USB plugged in the subcloud
Actual Behavior
The remote subcloud install fails if we plug a USB in the server
Reproducibility
Intermittent
This issue was not observed in a other subcloud which also has a USB plugged.
