Yes. The 6.1 CD was based on unionfs. Unionfs produces kernel oops if

This thread has been rife with lurkers and newbies.. So why not one more?
:-) Anyway, I'll keep this short.
Has anyone considered using unionfs to create a fake root? You can merge $LFS
and an empty directory (lets call it $PKG) specifying $LFS as the read-only
branch and $PKG as the read-w

linux since the early 90's. It's only been during the past 5 years or so
