Aufs freezes my archiso-live build in virtualbox. I believe this bug is cause aufs2 only worked for me without unionfs. Sadly thats the only way i ever got aufs2 to work at all with kernel 2.6.29 that i build.

I don't know about inserting unicode characters, but I tested the lat2 font for handling unicode a few days ago. It seems accents and certain cyrillic characters work ok, but japanese, korean etc do not work. I guess it just provides a unicode mapping, but not all unicode characters. I haven't tes
