(Assuming you are using Debian Bullseye amd64.) # debci setup -f -b qemu -a amd64 -s sid The above will create /var/lib/debci/qemu/sid-amd64.img "debci setup" sometimes fails, in such a case please retry... The above image has /sbin/init==systemd-sysv, of course. As open-iscsi has no problem with /sbin/init==systemd-sysv, We need to replace it with sysvinit-core in the VM image. # apt-get --install-recommends install virt-manager # cp /var/lib/debci/qemu/sid-amd64.img /var/lib/libvirt/images # virt-manager (this can be run by an ordinary user belonging to libvirt group) Start VM on /var/lib/libvirt/images/sid-amd64.img Login as root (no password) into the Linux running on VM. on-VM# apt-get install sysvinit-core on-VM# echo "S0:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 115200 vt100" >>/etc/inittab on-VM# shutdown -h -P now /var/lib/libvirt/images/sid-amd64.img should have /sbin/init==sysvinit-core now. autopkgtest -B -u debci -o some-dir-for-logging open-iscsi -- qemu --debug --show-boot /var/lib/libvirt/images/sid-amd64.img The test should get stuck at apt-get install open-iscsi...
