It can be a bug. The image file support comes from an external patch |
| 16 |
that was not so well tested... Maybe some missing loopback support in |
| 17 |
the kernel. |

You can also have a look at the gnap_overlay script and see what else |
| 20 |
could be failing. I suspect the mount is not checked for errors or |
| 21 |
something like that, unfortunately I have no time to check right now. |

As a workaround, you could try to mount your P200 hard disk into your |
| 24 |
workstation (as /dev/hdd or whatever) and use overlay to disk directly |
| 25 |
(rather than using an intermediary image file). This is way better tested ;) |
