No, it's different.

This bug is as easy to reproduce: run Fedora 22 Live Mode on laptop or VM,
it boots default into liveuser, try a `sudo dnf install 'Development
Tools'` then kernel crash,
from console I collected the dm-0 IO Errors.

This is always reproducible that makes me think Fedora Live Mode is
not usable at all, or maybe no users at all.

The fact is with overlayfs (or aufs from 2014 Ubuntu release) Live
Linux you can apt-get install whatever (write to /) as much data as
possible; till it becomes full and returns -ENOSPACE (and continues
usable if clean some data), on this Fedora Live OS with device-mapper
and simple sudo dnf install a few packages crashes kernel. Which is
more mature?

Maybe this is not the right place to complain or file a bug, could you
tell where is a better place to draw attention from developers behind
Fedora Live?
