I am in the process of making an xva (XenServer Virtual Appliance) to replace the function of the minimal.iso. The main difference would be an 'out-of-the-box' PV-mode support.
Since it is meant to replace minimal.iso, to make the xva small I plan on using squashfs as root. However, I do understand that some directories need to be writable (e.g., /etc, /var). So, I need to implement a union filesystem to allow writes to writable directories. No need for fancy stuffs like write-balancing or logging; the main need here is reliability (stability). Which union filesystem do you recommend? Rgds, -- -- Pandu E Poluan - IT Optimizer My website: http://pandu.poluan.info/
