Bug Description
Trying to install the latest mantic daily in current (from July 11th)
(and ater upgrading the installer manually with:
snap refresh subiquity --channel=
let me complete the installation process itself until "Reboot now",
but the following post-install reboot does not boot up the system from the newly installed disk,
but starts install system again?!
However, if I force a reboot from the newly installed disk (via the z/VM hypervisor with '#cp i 200' in my case), the newly installed system comes up properly (and it is really the newly installed system, I check the date/time when it got installed).
The console and shell output does not look suspicious, but the reboot just lands here:
Ý 2.900096¨ raid6: using algorithm vx128x8 gen() 19123 MB/s
Ý 3.070038¨ raid6: .... xor() 12292 MB/s, rmw enabled
Ý 3.070055¨ raid6: using s390xc recovery algorithm
Ý 3.071513¨ xor: automatically using best checksumming function xc
done.

Unable to find a medium containing a live file system
Attempt interactive netboot from a URL?
yes no (default yes):
I'm attaching the log from the system after I manually booted it.

So this sounds like the chreipl command isn't working. Do you have any idea why this might be?
The fact that we run chreipl just before reboot is kind of counter to how other platforms work but well. Hard to see how that would matter.
