Sure, this means it's selected (if the line starts with an X).

However, when you just build the aufs package you only get it's maintenance tools (if any).

Due to the nature of the monolithic Linux kernel those add-on modules require the whole kernel source tree to be around to compile. In T2 we setup those third pary modules to be compiled when the actually linux kernel is compiled (linux24, linux26 packages). So in order to get the aufs file-system kernel module you need to rebuild your liniux26 package (e.g. by Build-Target -job 5-linux26) to have aufs build along when the kernel is build and the actual source code tree is available.

Hello Rene,
Thanks for your prompt response, actually, by doing: cat config/myconf/package | grep aufs I see that AUFS is present, does that mean that the AUFS is added to the build?
Cheers

        Hello Rene,
        I need a small hint about using AUFS instead of unionfs in my
        T2 Build, I'm trying to build a livecd with T2, I'm using
        kernel 2.6.29, the image is generated but the FS is read-only,
        I have to switch to AUFS instead of unionfs, I added AUFS to
        my build, but still, the kernel defaults to unionfs and
        ignores AUFS. Any help would be appreciated, I'm stuck. Thanks
        in advance.

    Are you sure you rebuild the linux26 kernel package? Only if you
    rebuild the kernel after adding the aufs package you'll get the
    aufs module as the kernel modules need the kernel to be there.

    If the aufs module is there it should be preferred over unionfs.
