block probing crashed with ValueError - Invalid dep_id (disk-nbd0) not in storage config - PXE Install

[Tony SAM]

Using a tool called iVentoy to mount the ISO under device nbd0 using PXE Boot we get the following error as soon as the installer window pop-up.

NB:
- Using rufus to install with an usb stick instead works without any issue.
- Legacy installer (Ubiquity) also works in PXE mounting nbd0 without issue.
