** Description changed:

  Hi,
  
  this affects version signature Ubuntu 4.4.0-21.37-generic 4.4.6 (as
- reported by initramfs)
+ reported by initramfs), ARCH: amd64
  
  I have installed ubuntu 16.04 via debootstrap in a chroot environment. I
  can PXE boot this environment via NFS using the following Kernel
  parameters without a problem:
  
  root=/dev/nfs  initrd=initrd.gz nfsroot=10.23.23.1:/mnt/lab ip=dhcp ro
  
  (initramfs generated with 'mkinitramfs -v -o ~/initrd.img
  4.4.0-21-generic'. I can attach the  whole initramfs.conf, if desired)
  
  As soon as I enable overlayroot (using tmpfs as overlay target), the
  machine hangs at boot.
  
  In order to debug this issue, I have appended the
  
  break=init
  
  kernel parameter.
  
  In busybox I can then see that the overlay is mounted. However, if I try to 
chroot into it, I get a stacktrace (see attached screenshot).
  The overlay seems to be readable, but not writeable.
  
  ('touch file' works, but there is nothing there afterwards)
