First, aufs2 is not used anymore. The new approach is using device mapper with a snapshot feature, it has some advantages and disadvantages.
can you list the advantages and disadvantages? I mean, from a topdown end-user perspective..
Advantage: Snapshotting is supported and works with all kernels, aufs does not work with 2.6.39 and is not officially supported. Disadvantage: More memory needed - the read-write overlay is now block-based instead of file-based.
