I was getting the same issue and after updating my package.json file to include the rails_admin content, and running yarn build:css manually, I was able to move on.

package.json looks like this

...
"scripts": {
    "build:css": "sass ./app/assets/stylesheets/application.sass.scss:./app/assets/builds/application.css ./app/assets/stylesheets/rails_admin.scss:./app/assets/builds/rails_admin.css --no-source-map --load-path=node_modules"
  }
...

I also had to get my manifest.js file updated with

//= link rails_admin.css
//= link application-admin.css

I am running into this on a fresh install but running yarn build:css does not clear up the issue.

Ok I missed some red output during rails g rails_admin:install:

You need to merge "scripts": {
  "build:css": "sass ./app/assets/stylesheets/rails_admin.scss:./app/assets/builds/rails_admin.css --no-source-map --load-path=node_modules"
} into the existing scripts in your package.json.
Taking 'build:css' as an example, if you're already have application.sass.css for the sass build, the resulting script would look like:
  sass ./app/assets/stylesheets/application.sass.scss:./app/assets/builds/application.css ./app/assets/stylesheets/rails_admin.scss:./app/assets/builds/rails_admin.css --no-source-map --load-path=node_modules

Correctly following those instructions fixed my issue.
