Title:
  mantic installation (in remote ssh session) on z/VM starts subiquity
  in basic mode

Status in subiquity:
  In Progress
Status in Ubuntu on IBM z Systems:
  Confirmed
Status in subiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Today I did a mantic installation (using ISO image from Sept 14th) in a z/VM guest.
  The early boot steps ran as usual at the console level (the basic network config),
  but when I switched over to the remote ssh session I've noticed that subiquity ran in basic mode,
  rather than in rich mode (like in the past).
  (Basic mode means mono-chrome - rich mode is colorful.)
  The installation itself and subiquity worked okay in basic mode, it's just a bit less convenient.

  I believe that this could be a regression due to a recent activity
  around fixing 'preserving rich mode'.
