Steps
Given I have started Tails without network from a USB drive with a persistent partition enabled and logged in 11.506
And the network is plugged 0.135
And Tor is ready 16.478
And I take note of which tps features are available 25.121

And I shutdown Tails and wait for the computer to power off 0.000
# XXX: The next step succeeds (and the --debug output confirms that it's actually looking for the files) but will fail in a subsequent scenario restoring the same snapshot. This exactly what we want, but why does it work? What is guestfs's behaviour when qcow2 internal snapshots are involved?
Then only the expected files are present on the persistence partition on USB drive "__internal" 0.000
