Ah. I overmount that as early as possible, which cures many evils (and
leaves a very nice fallback system if something fails in startup; you
just fall back to "nothing enabled" with a r/o root). But, still, that's
seldom more than a few hundred K (and mostly text files at that, which
don't get much versioning).

Yes that's a really good idea - using a bind mount from another
filesystem in the LVM2 ?

something like:
mount --bind /etc /origetc
mount --bind /newetc /etc

Where /origetc is simply a mountpoint in the root filesystem (to be able
to maintain /etc after the next mount)
and /newetc is an LV within LVM2.
