[Bug 1898160] [NEW] service fails badly on non target platform

[Christian Ehrhardt ]

Public bug reported:

If run on e.g. an arm64 container it now installs fine at least (thanks!).
But some issues are left that could be more graceful.

Maybe a ConditionPathExists=/sys/firmware/devicetree/base/system/linux,revision or such would already help?
