Booting 18.04 with overlay fillesystem












0
















  1. I have an arm based embedded target with emmc and sd card.




    1. The 18.04 rootfs is on /dev/mmcblk0p2. Kernel version is 4.14 and overlay filesystem is enabled. Kernel and device tree are on /dev/mmcblk0p1


    2. Before making it read only, installed overlayfs package with apt-get and set overlayroot=tmpfs in /etc/overlayroot.conf file.


    3. using uboot to load kernel and bootargs are: earlyprintk loglevel=8 uio_pdrv_genirq.of_id=generic-uio root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 ro rootwait rootfstype=ext4





After above setup: I still see rootfs is mounted on /dev/mmcblk0p2.



Am I missing anything?
