initrd should have aufs mode

Binary package hint: initramfs-tools

Hi,

that's not a bug-report, that's a wish and proposal:

Would be nice if the initrd would support mounting a ramdisk/aufs over a read-only root system in case the root file system is not writable or the user requests on the command line.

It would allow to use and temporarily modify a linux system without actually changing it. Or to have a root file system on a squashfs compressed file.

regards
Hadmut
