unionfs is not supported at this time. It is purely experimental. |
| 2 |
There are some halt.sh script changes that need to be put inplace for it |
| 3 |
to work at shutdown. |

Also unionfs at the moment does not support remounting ro or rw. It |
| 6 |
will fail. |

I am not even 100% sure that this is how unionfs should be implemented |
| 9 |
in the future. It is highly experimental and there are bugs with it |
| 10 |
yet. In the future it may not be part of the initramfs at all as it |
| 11 |
contains issues such as you are describing. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Mainly its inclusion to date is proof of concept only and may be |
| 14 |
radically different in the future. |
