This is because the device doesn't implement UEFI set variable. It should offer an option to continue. It's been dealt with upstream with the following PR https://github.com/rhboot/efivar/pull/282 But I'm not sure efivar has had a new release or that patch hasn't been pulled in yet.
Sorry, comment was on the wrong bug.
This should be fixed in anaconda-42.27.13-1.fc42 and included in: https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/compose/iot/Fedora-IoT-42-20250724.1/compose/IoT/aarch64/iso/Fedora-IoT-ostree-42-20250724.1.aarch64.iso
