Different How to compile and conduct functional test fails in each extended test run fortests of Bitcoin core 22.0rc3for CPU (32 bit) and memory constrained system?

I wanted to use my old laptop to run a bitcoin full node.

Specifications:

  • Processor: Intel Core2Duo @2.2 GHz i686
  • OS: Lubuntu 18.04.6 LTS (I have tried first on Lubuntu 16.04, but it failed due to lack of a compiler with c++17 feature. The fix was too complicated for me. I rather upgraded the OS as discussed here.)
  • RAM: 4 GB

Since there is no installation media of Bitcoin core 22.0rc3 for 32 bit processors, I had to compile it. I followed the instructions from the Bitcoin github, and these two articles here and here.

After successfully executing make command, in testing phase I have got these results:

  • 2 times make check passed.
  • 2 times test/functional/test_runner.py passed.
  • 4 times test/functional/test_runner.py --extended different errors in each run.
    • 1st run - feature_pruning.py and feature_dbcrash.py failed.
    • 2nd run - rpc_signrawtransaction.py --legacy-wallet and feature_pruning.py failed.
    • 3rd run - feature_pruning.py failed.
    • 4th run - feature_config_args.py and feature_pruning.py failed.

What these errors mean? Why the results vary in each run? Is it safe to run this compiled Bitcoin core? How can I compile without getting any errors?

I am not a technical person. Could you please use layman's terms. Thank you in advance.

(I want to download full blockchain and no need for legacy wallet support.)
