Hi there,

my scenario is the following: I have a classroom with two dozens of Windows 7 
machines.

I would like to create a read-only virtual disk that is placed on a network 
drive. That disk would contain a standard install of Fedora 20.

Now I would like to have an overlay filesystem that is based on the virtual 
disk above, and, per user we would have the difference. Since I would not 
encourage the installation of large packages, that overlay filesystems would 
contain only configuration modifications mostly. I would share these diffs 
through Samba to have password protection.

Is this doable with Virtualbox? How? Would it make acceptable speeds for 
running basic services like httpd and mysqld?

Cheers

- Gergely
