Richard, crossposting like that's thoughtless. I only got the one to
-xen-[1], where Christoph is unreachable. Since Christoph isn't on the

I have a more general question about unionfs:
I want to build a xen machine with a save base-image and a temporary
write image that can be saved or thrown away on demand. So I thought
about using unionfs to mount both these images as /.
The problem is: unionfs does not mount images but directories that are
already mounted. So I would need to mount those two images somewhere
else. Obviuosly this would happen somewhere above / (e.g. /workimage
and /rootimage). Could unionfs handle this?
Or is there even a better way?
LVM + snapshots.

BTW, there is a fedora-xen list for discussion of Xen issues.
There is, but this doesn't seem to me to be a xen question; take xen out
of it, and the question still stands.
That said, there is z xen solution documented in
/usr/share/doc/xen-3.0.3/pdf/user.pdf " 6.3 Using LVM-backed VBDs" in my
Sl5 system. Read the information for the version of xen you're running.
