disklist blank, dev group is root, not disk

Hi,

I'm attempting to deploy Debian bookworm and I have build a new nfsroot, 
etc. in the same way I have for bullseye. I'm running into the issue 
that disklist is blank. The subroutine all_disks_and_size is returning a 
correct list (with either a sda or nvme0 device depending on which build 
machine I try). However, both devices have ownership of "root:root" so 
it looks like checkdisk is failing as it is expecting the device to have 
a group owner of "disk".

I'm running into a wall on how to troubleshoot this issue further... any 
suggestions would be appreciated.

The logs are reporting FAI 6.2.3.

Cheers,
Merlin.
