Comment 6 for bug 1971438

Another data point. The console displays a message " Waiting for cloud-init...."
When the failure occurs, the display is:

cloud-init failed to complete after 10 minutes of waiting. This
suggests a bug, Which we would appreciate understanding.

The option to drop into a shell, or close is presented.

If the close option is selected, the cli version of the install is begun and will complete successfully.

The disk is 600GB. It might be possible that cloud-init is timing out due to the formatting of the disk.
