    Description

      Description of problem:

      On release 4.12 ISO 
      
      ------------------
      # coreos-installer iso kargs modify --append console=tty ../4.12/agent.x86_64.iso 
      # echo $?
      0
      ------------------
      
      So it runs with success!
      
      On release 4.14 or 4.13
      
      ------------------
      # coreos-installer iso kargs modify --append console=tty ../4.13/agent.x86_64.iso
      Error: No karg embed areas found; old or corrupted CoreOS ISO image.
      # echo $?
      1
      
      ------------------
      
      Similarly,
      
      ------------------
      # coreos-installer iso kargs modify --append console=tty ../4.14/agent.x86_64.iso  
      Error: No karg embed areas found; old or corrupted CoreOS ISO image. 
      # echo $? 
      1
      ------------------
      
      I don't see the failure from payload,
      
      ISO of 4.13 or 4.14
      
      ------------------
      # coreos-installer iso kargs modify --append console=tty /root/.cache/agent/image_cache/coreos-x86_64.iso
      
      # echo $?
      0
      ------------------
      
      So there is failure.
      
      I see that as, 4.12 was based on RHEL8 whereas 4.13+ are based on RHEL9 so there is 
      something behind it as change to AgentBasedInstaller ISO generation.

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

      4.13    

      How reproducible:

          Always trying to customize agent-based ISO

      Steps to Reproduce:

          1. Create ISO and try to customize.

      Actual results:

          Fails to customize and same time make USB out of it.
