The message about "Unable to find a medium containing a live file system" should appear after 60 seconds time out.

I wonder, if that message is not displayed, due to Operating Systems Messages window failing to refresh up to date messages.

If and when, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/1854513 is implemented, instead of showing this "Unable to find a medium containing a live file system" we will instead trigger "configure manual networking & attempt manual network boot" experience.

But I wonder, if the 60s delay, will still be inadequate. I wonder if we should be checking for auto-zdev devices, and if all of them got activated, realize that it is pointless to wait for 60s on s390x, because no devices will be hotplugged (or are slow to appear) which may have the .iso DD'ed onto them.
