Forgot to show the syntax invocation:  lxc-copy -n base -N snapshot1 -M -s -B 
overlayfs

So this leads to "snapshot1" running with base as the underlying read-only 
root.  Is it OK to run and to upate package in "base" while "snapshot1" is 
running?  I read in some guides on this topic that the readonly base image 
should not be running while clones are running.  Thanks!
