  In this image, initrd-switch-root.service fails because "/sysroot does
not contain /etc/os-release".  This is visible when you boot with
"systemd.log_level=debug systemd.journald.forward_to_console=1"
as described on https://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/Debugging/

  This one is weird. I tried "rd.shell" and "rd.break", which should
just drop to dracut shell, but it didn't work.

 BTW, partition setup looks weird, too. vda1 is 1MB empty partition,
then vda2 is /boot and vda3 is rootfs.  Is this how we organise disks by
default?
