Evaluate whether aufs approach is doable
Added by _miska_ about 11 years ago.
Updated over 10 years ago.
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?
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
- Status changed from Resolved to Closed
