[gentoo-catalyst] root_overlay

[Kosta Todorovic]

I cant seem to get the root_overlay to work.

In my livecd-stage2 spec I have:

livecd/root_overlay: /path/to/root_overlay/
#livecd/overlay: /path/to/overlay/

In /path/to/root_overlay/ as a test I have made a new directory in
/var/log/ called "test".

So I have /path/to/root_overlay/var/log/test.

Unfortunately this does not show up at all once the LiveCD is built.

Also there are many directories made in my livecd-stage1 built as
config/log files for the packages that I've emerged but these get
wiped out again once the livecd-stage2 is built.

Packages like Webmin which need /var/log/webmin or Snort which needs
/var/log/snort  fail without these dirs (and without
re-configuration).


Whats the way around this?
I would like default configs and dirs from emerged livecd-stage1
packages to still be there once i've made the livecd-stage2 build.
