I've heard that something like this will exist in 2.6 . I seem to
remember reading an article in a recent Linux Journal that explained how
to create a simple layered filesystem. Something to do with overriding
VFS calls. I think you can stack multiple layers, too.
Just think - ISO9660 or UDF RO DVD + Copy-On-Write layer + crypto for
the COW data :-)
I'll see if I can hunt up the info.
