IMHO in the world of container registries and such I would be less worried about the content that exists on the machine (container images, containers etc). If there are two LVs (and thus two partitions) one can choose DM or overlay2. If they want to switch between the two, blow away the one that exists and start over. If you want to keep your containers, store them somewhere else temporarily. > > > Therefore, the reason given for maintaining two partitions as the default is > invalid. > > > If that reason is invalid, we should again consider making "one big > partition" the default for Overlay2 installations. I prefer overlay2 and would like to see there be only one option so that we can have less confusion in the future. However, giving users the choice is nice as well. Maybe there is a way to achieve both on startup. `` To reply, visit the link below or just reply to this email https://pagure.io/atomic-wg/issue/186 _______________________________________________ cloud mailing list -- cloud@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to cloud-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
