Replacing aufs with overlayfs is currently *not* possible as overlayfs still doesn't support NFS as a lowerdir [1]. Thus, trying to create a union mount with a read-only NFS filesystem will not work. If installing through FAI from an NFSROOT should work in Stretch, this patch therefore *must* be merged and users have to use aufs instead of overlayfs. Let's get this patch merged and a file an unblock request for Stretch. Adrian > [1] https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/filesystems/overlayfs.txt -- .''`.
