It should behave like a ordinary read-write system. If you delete a file or
directory, you have to make a copy of the parent directory on the read-write
system with the deleted entry removed. Well, the new directory should notice
any creations in the original one and copy them. Hmm, i.e. you have to set
some special flags for it. How can you store them during reboots? Or is there
another hurdish way?
