Generally you can use aufs in initramfs. What is the filesystem type of your first writable branch? If it is XFS, then you need to mount tmpfs somewhere and specify xino= mount option. > This is another reason why I implore you to make a cut down, nfs-less > version as well as a nfs version of aufs, or otherwise continue doing > cvs updates where you can select the options you can compile into the > module. Looks like ill have to hack some code. Wish me luck.. If you export some kernel functions, then aufs can be an external module. How do you think about these public GIT trees? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- If I make a public GIT tree and create two branches, is it enough for you? - branchA equivalent to current aufs2 tarball - branchB for building aufs2 as an external module which will be branchA plus some changes The GIT tree will include whole kernel source tree. Is it OK? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- J. R.
