Hello,

During a recent IRC conversation the question of always booting Fedora
fresh on hardware came up. We've got the Live variants which do this
already and it's possible to directly write them to a local disk. Similar
to booting from a USB stick, you could use the local hardware instead.
However, it's not really a read-only boot. Booting from a locally copied
Live environment still allows full access.

Is there a way to configure the immutable versions to have a similar RAM
only overlay?

I'd imagine an immutable base that is automatically updated and has all
other runtime changes discarded on reboot. There could be an automatically
logged in user that has extremely limited privileges and can only work in
the current boot userspace.

Previously this has been discussed as something like a kiosk mode, but I
could see this used in many other situations.

Thanks for any consideration,
