From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx> In recent Debian versions, ebtables is an alias managed by the alternatives(8) mechanism. This means /usr/sbin/ebtables is a symlink to /etc/alternatives/ebtables, which in turn links to the real binary. As we mount a tmpfs over /etc, we cannot access this. Fix this by bind-mounting the real /etc to /tmp/etc and adding a symlink from /etc/alternatives to this.
