Description

Few things to consider about aufs approach:

  • is aufs maintainable?
  • what are the gotchas of this approach?
  • can it be done without rewriting everything?

Updated by _miska_ about 11 years ago

Results:

  • aufs looks maintainable, two more patches needed in the kernel, upstream is alive
  • gotchas ** if we want to support multiple images/options, we need to somehow communicate with user *** currently the most feasible approach looks like using syslinux boot entries generated during boot ** hard kernel updates
  • re-usability ** linuxrc is quite modular, by omitting few modules and replacing them with our own we can achieve the result without much hassle
