We use "aufs" to union a COW filesystem for our custom "Live" system. It does seem a little odd that many of the other distros now use a union filesystem approach to LiveCDs and NFS read-only roots but Fedora has for the time being stayed away from it. It's not like there isn't lots of custom stuff being put into fedora/redhat kernels that isn't yet upstream. In fact there was a discussion about getting UnionFS upstream recently on the kernel list.... Saying all this the dm-snapshot approach will be more efficient space wise as it works with blocks instead of whole files.
