I've never used unionfs before so am a bit in the dark and, thus, it could 
be a stupid question but... since all I need is to make /var/www writable 
so PHP scripts can write to a SQLite database file there, instead of 
playing with unionfs, can't I just use a second partition to hold this part 
of the filesystem, and mount it in rw mode through /etc/fstab, like we do 
for regular Linux installs?

I guess the question is: What problem is unionfs trying to solve, since we 
need a second partition to hold the rw files anyway?

Vi is fine with me. The reason I prefer vim is that it handles the arrow 
keys better (eg. not getting ABCD, being able to use the PageUp/Down, etc.)

Thanks.
