The device can be mounted manually after boot, so I know it's not a missing
module problem. dmesg also indicates no errors during boot. It just doesn't
do the overlay.

I saw on the -devel list that there's something about OverlayFS v23 and
above needing an extra directory to be given at mount time[2]. I'm wondering
if that may be related, or whether I'm missing something else entirely.


Cheers,

It's been a while since i worked with extroot, but I'm pretty sure I had
to run /etc/init.d/fstab enable/start to make it work on bootup.

You've probably already tried this but I thought I'd mention it.

Johan

Thanks for mentioning /etc/init.d/fstab enable/start, it's something relative and obvious I should've mentioned in my original post.

Sadly, however, I can confirm I've done this with no effect.

Regards,

Pete.
