overlay fs = "sorry, can't write your file and I just corrupted everything you ever wrote to the overlay".
overlay fs = "sorry, can't write your file and I just corrupted everything you ever wrote to the overlay".
Our current thinking is that this goal is achievable with a bit of scripting that takes the livecd-tools .iso image we get now and...
# creates a pre-partitioned disk image (cue loads of partition / cylinder /etc. nuances here)
# unrolls the livecd-tools' nested filesystems and copies the contents to the disk image from #1
# does any hacking of the filesystem contents necessary to remove any undesirable assumptions about the livecd-tools' filesystem configuration.
