Several tests are skipped because "failed to create file system" or
"failed to determine size".  They should not happen in theory.

The problem here is programs `mkfs`, `fdisk`, etc from Chapter 5
util-linux is in `/tools/sbin`, which is not in $PATH.  I don't know
if other testsuites suffer the same problem.

We can add `/tools/sbin` to $PATH in 6.4 (Chroot) so testsuites in
Chapter 6 can use the programs in it.
