install failed crashed with CalledProcessError

I was interrupted between typing password and repeating the password (for login). Maybe it is a duplicate of a recent bug report.

Tried to install with encryption, maybe the same bug as reported previously,

https://bugs.launchpad.net/subiquity/+bug/2043585

but I am not sure about the symptoms, so I report as a separate bug.

I tried again (so twice with today's daily build) and the same thing happened.

Thank you for your bug report. Indeed this is the same root cause as in the other bugs when installing noble with encryption enabled.
