current tests are pretty basic and  for package maintainers mostly to sanety-check the kernels.

initrd assembled for test is built from host binaries, often compiled with -match=native (as I see in the flags)

but qemu, which runs the tests can't emulate some instructions in software mode, thus this test often fail.

it should work fine on systems/chroots where's no -march binaries/libraries copied into dracut.


dracut also supports --sysroot option, so tests could use unpacked arball with generic binaries as sysroot, but it's not implemented yet.

I'll leave this open for now.

Please let the tinderbox try again.  It turned out that dracut didn't respect config overrides.  The tests started passing on my devbox too, so maybe it helped tinderbox as well.
