Error encountered while detecting Mac Intel devices

[koitococo]

Description:

I use Anaconda Installer to install Fedora 40 on my mini PC, but installer crashed immediately.

Blivet detects Intel-based Apple Mac devices with the T2 security chip. The function is_t2mac relies on reading DMI information, but encounters errors when attempting to decode misconfigured information that cannot be interpreted as UTF-8. Specifically, the problem arises at buf = read_file(DMI_PRODUCT_NAME).strip().

Traceback:
