Yeah use a little pacakge called "overlayroot" newer image have it
installed by default..

If you dont:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install overlayroot

Then make sure to regenerate the initrd..

sudo update-initramfs -uk `uname -r`

Then in /boot/uEnv.txt append this variable to your existing cmdline settings.

cmdline=(existing settings) overlayroot=tmpfs

Then reboot, your system is now "Read Only"..


So Beyond that, what's really really nice about overlayroot, you can
login and actually write stuff to the drive by doing:

sudo overlayroot-chroot
