Hi, I'm using unionfs as a root filesystem on a rescue and live cd and it generally works great, so thanks a lot. I've got a small issue, though:
I've mounted unionfs with three branches: read-write tmpfs, read-only iso9660 and read-only squashfs loopback dirs=/.tmpfs/.overlay=rw:/.tmpfs/.cdrom=ro:/.tmpfs/.sqfs=ro The problem is that the symbolic link in e.g. /proc/1/exe doesn't point to /sbin/init but it points to the original /.tmpfs/.sqfs/sbin/init. There are some programs (e.g. debian's start-stop-daemon and binary relocatable programs like mono >= 1.1.10) where that's problematic. I've tested this setup with unionfs-20050929-0844/linux-2.6.14.2 and unionfs-20051126-1822/linux-2.6.15-rc4 Is this a known issue and is there a solution or workaround by any chance? BTW: That issue doesn't occur when using mount --bind, so it's not like the kernel always sets the exe link to the original location.
