Issue/Bug Description: Refresh installation fails to update virtualized Pop-OS to boot. (Without refreshing it doesn't boot in VM. Though works perfectly in initial environment at desktop.)

Steps to reproduce (if you know): 1) create QCOW2 image of existing Pop-OS from 256 GB disk, which takes only 70GB (so there's plenty of space inside the image) 2) transfer it to another (host) system (under Pop-OS too) with 260 GB free 3) chown and chmod the image to be like native gnome-boxes images 4) add new VM with 12GB RAM in gnome-boxes and point it to the image file 5) add current Pop-OS installation ISO-image as VirtIO media 6) boot from Pop-OS installation ISO-image 7) choose to Refresh installation 8) receive error in output

Expected behavior:

System boot repair.
