Description

    FunionFS is the aggregation of two filesystems: a read-only and a

    could be a Ramdisk or a partition on an USB key ...  All datas are
    read from the read-only filesystem if they are not present on the
    read write one.  Data are written to the read-write filesystem.
    it's the same principle as the unionfs driver used in the well
    known Knoppix CDROM.
