: [yocto] Read-only file system with persistent storage
I'd like to set up a system with a read-only root file system along with some
persistent read-write storage. What are the [best] options in Poky/Yocto for
this? Is there any support for some type of overlay file system?
Thanks for any ideas

Hi Gary, I'm interested in that too. In my case I want to have a
reset-to-factory-defaults-button on my device. The idea was use an readonly
filesystem and, on top of it, a read-write filesystem. All modifications
