Starting with OCP 4.12.0-ec.4 on Z build and continuing through the latest OCP 4.12.0.0 nightly build on Z, 4.12.0-0.nightly-s390x-2022-10-16-225440, all zVM installs fail when using the FIPS=TRUE installation option.  

OCP 4.12.0-ec.4 on Z build through the latest OCP 4.12.0.0 nightly build on Z, 4.12.0-0.nightly-s390x-2022-10-16-225440.

Consistently reproducible when specifying the FIPS=TRUE installation option.

1.Configure the install-config.yaml file with the FIPS=TRUE option. 
2.Proceed with a standard connected installation.

The bootstrap node boots, but none of the master nodes complete their boot.  Please see the bootstrap node's "journalctl -b -f -u release-image.service -u bootkube.service" output below.

The master nodes should all complete their boots and the installation successfully proceed and complete, as it does when the FIPS=FALSE installation option is specified.

1. When the FIPS=FALSE option is specified with any of the affected OCP 4.12.0-ec.4 and post nightly OCP 4.12.0 nightly builds, all of the installations complete (forgoing any other issues).

2. The OCP 4.12.0-ec.0 through OCP 4.12.0.ec.3 builds all successfully install with the FIPS=TRUE option, for both KVM and zVM environments.

3. Here is a snippet of the bootstrap node's "journalctl -b -f -u release-image.service -u bootkube.service" command for the OCP 4.12.0-0.nightly-s390x-2022-10-16-225440 build when FIPS=TRUE and the installation fails:
