What were you trying to do that didn't work?

livemedia-creator fails to build an ISO on aarch64, ppc64le and s390x. Its log shows an issue with loading of nvme module and Storage Anaconda module:

and there is a traceback in Anaconda's log:

followed by subsequent tracebacks.

I found there have been some NVMe-related changes made in Anaconda since the last time our livemedia-creator test passed (which was with RHEL-9.4.0-20240116.9/anaconda-34.25.4.1-1.el9): https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/5328 - may it be the cause of the failure?

Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:

anaconda-34.25.4.7-1.el9 (RHEL-9.4.0-20240301.8)

How reproducible:

Always.

Steps to reproduce

1. Build a live ISO using livemedia-creator: livemedia-creator --make-disk --no-virt --iso /var/lib/libvirt/images//boot.iso --ks ks.cfg --nomacboot

Expected results

Image build is successful.

Actual results

Image build fails due to an Anaconda traceback.
