Here is an example using the new 'shwh' (show-whiteouts) option,
available in aufs-20080310.
Junjiro:
Maybe you'd like to check this through and include it in the cvs source?

Hi there,
I have a feature request. I don't know whether it would be possible, or
whether you have a better idea, but here goes.
I have a three layer aufs mount, which is being used as the root fs:
[top]layer1=rw(tmpfs):layer2=ro+wh(squashfs):layer3=rr(squashfs)[bottom]
What I want to do is
It used to be possible to build aufs without the full kernel sources,
but now this doesn't work, I get the following:
...

grep: /usr/src/linux-2.6.23-ARCH/mm/shmem.c: No such file or directory

CDs do it (though I can't speak for the details, I haven't used this
method for a while - I am now using klibc instead of busybox and
mounting aufs later).
If you need example scripts you could look at

The sample in aufs cvs tree supports initramfs too.

Could it be that there is a difference in regard to this in pivot_root
and switch_root? I
We are getting a strange 'lag' behaviour using aufs (well it seems
strange to us). It's happening in a live CD environment using squashfs.
After certain file-system operations - apparently where a large number
of files get added or updated, but exactly when it happens and when not
is not clear -
