Kickstart installations of RHEL 9.4 and 9.3 show an issue fetching the kickstart when retrieving from NFS source, however, the script is retrieved and the installation is able to proceed.
This appears to have started in RHEL 9.3 and continues in 9.4. Testing with 9.2 and earlier versions does not show this same result.

testing results using same kickstart server (NFS):

8.10 Does not show failure to retrieve
9.0 Does not show failure to retrieve
9.1 Does not show failure to retrieve
9.2 Does not show failure to retrieve
9.3 This notification appears
9.4 This notification appears
