[ANNOUNCEMENT] - Remove readonly-root

Open jamacku opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

We are planning to remove readonly-root functionality from initscripts in near future. Since very similar functionality is delivered by recently introduced volatile-root in systemd v242

Reason being to encourage people to use volatile-root instead of legacy readonly-root. They are still some grey spots, which need further research from our side. We plan to make a guide how to move from readonly-root to volatile-root in near future.

We are now in planning phase and we are looking for your opinions, so don't hesitate to reach to us.

Suggestion: Maybe already add a pointer to the volatile-root functionality in the initscripts.spec (%description), plus perhaps mention that the functionality is considered legacy?

Thank you @ovitters for your suggestion. I added note into specfile. (#339)
