Ubuntu precise did ship in the end with aufs: ~# modprobe -v aufs insmod /lib/modules/3.2.0-30-generic/kernel/ubuntu/aufs/aufs.ko
However, it was removed for quantal, which ships kernel v3.5: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-quantal.git;a=commitdiff;h=d38cbebe93dd4f4accc737b240826f103109c27a Given serious problems listed at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bugs?field.searchtext=overlayfs, I would like to ask the ubuntu kernel maintainers to reconsider shipping aufs for now. For our site here (student lab at uni-erlangen), bug #1039402 is quite serious as it hinders the rollout and testing of quantal for our lab. ** Summary changed: - Keep aufs module in linux-image-3.2.0 + Please reconsider keeping aufs module in linux-image-3.5.0 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/908784 Title: Please reconsider keeping aufs module in linux-image-3.5.0 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/908784/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
