0ac2c9f6cd1bd5f2d7091e1c08096152ed02a23f introduced a call runcmd('/usr/bin/chattr', '-f', '+C', $basedir); with the intent of disabling COW.
Problem is runcmd dies on !0 and chattr can easily come back !0 if the underlying filesystem gets angry

e.g.

root@packet-openqa-neon-001:/tmp# mkdir x
root@packet-openqa-neon-001:/tmp# /usr/bin/chattr -V +C x
chattr 1.42.13 (17-May-2015)
Flags of x set as -------------e-C
/usr/bin/chattr: Operation not supported while setting flags on x
```

which in turn will abort the entire os-autoinst.

chattr issues should probably be non-fatal.
