I think the issue is related to the use of by-path ; which can change
when the installation media gets ejected. Chris ran into a similar issue
on Oracular recently and ended up patching kvm-test.py [1]. I think we
need to investigate what makes us suddenly rely on by-path (if we didn't
do it before).

  RISC-V Installation with encrypted LVM boots into emergency mode

Status in subiquity package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  I used http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily-
  live/20240919.4/oracular-live-server-riscv64.img.gz using for testing
  https://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/462/builds/313551.

  /snap/subiquity/6154 of version 24.10-devel+git327.24b14804 was used.

  I chose LVM with encryption.

  After rebooting I entered my decryption password I ended up in
  emergency mode:

  You are in emergency mode. After logging in, type "journalctl -xb" to view
  system logs, "systemctl reboot" to reboot, or "exit"
