I spent a lot of time to address the flakyness of the dracut tests (races, timeouts, etc). The flakyness should be fixed in dracut 110-7 (there is one more timeout fix for test 41 in 110-8). There are three test failures of 110-7: 1) 72-nbd: kernel BUG at arch/powerpc/include/asm/interrupt.h:355 2) 70-iscsi: I/O error, dev sdb, sector 69122 op 0x0:(READ) 3) 71-iscsi-multi: timed out (last log line: "Run /init as init process") So failure 1 and 2 look like kernel related. Failure 3 does not look like dracut being the culprit. -- Benjamin Drung Debian & Ubuntu Developer
