      Description of problem:
      Provisioning a RHEL 9 host where kernel updates are applied after initial kickstart results in booting to emergency mode due to failure of initrd-switch-root.service

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
      6.11 Satellite, 9.0 RHEL

      How reproducible:
      Every time so far

      Steps to Reproduce:
      1. Create new host to provision with RHEL 9
      2. Include activation key so host registers with Satellite during provisioning
      3. Host applies available updates as part of 'Kickstart default' provisioning template with default to upgrade packages

      Actual results:
      Host provisions but upon first boot, when attempting to boot new kernel, system goes to emergency boot:

      ignited-switch-root.service fails, error message on console:
      Specified switch root path '/sysroot' does not seem to be an OS tree. os-release file is missing..

      Expected results:
      system boot fully into new kernel

      Additional info:
      default 9.0 kernel is 5.14.0-70.13.1.el9_0
      failed updated kernel is 5.14.0-70.17.1.el9_0
