You want both directories to be read-only? You should have at least the
highest priority branch rw. If you want the whole union to be ro, make
the highest priority branch rw, but make the mount ro. Eg.

mount -t unionfs -o ro,dirs=/mnt/hdb1=rw:/mnt/hda7=ro unionfs /data/

Yeah, that's expected. -22 = Invalid argument

That's a known bug, that should get fixed up soon. The problem shows up
whenever the mount fails - if you give it nonexistant directories to
union, etc.
