Hi Osamu,
while proofreading my translation of DR, I found the following in chapter
9.5.17:
In order to use aufs, its utility package aufs-tools and kernel module
package for aufs such as aufs-modules-2.6-amd64 need to be installed.
But there is no such " aufs-modules-* " package in the archive since after
Lenny. The "aufs.ko" kernel module is integrated in the linux-image packages
these days.
I would tend to skip the mention of that packages completely.
Patch attached.
Friendly greetings
Holger
