Disable FriendlyCore's OverlayFS

Moderators: chensy, FATechsupport

Sorry for another question.

Now I'm using FriendlyCore xenial 4.14 with Nanopi neo. Current overlay fs is using sd card for both upper and lower file system but I want to use ramdisk as an upper root file system instead and use the 3rd partition to store other data, so I need to disable FriendlyCore's overlay fs and use my own overlay setup.

But from the wiki page http://wiki.friendlyarm.com/wiki/index. ... s_on_Linux, the only way to disable FriendlyCore's overlay fs is to delete the 3rd partition only. And after I delete the 3rd partition and create an empty new 3rd partition, it always converts back to an overlay again.

Is it have a method to disable FriendlyCore's overlay fs or re-config it to use a ramdisk for an upper file system.

Thank you
Comment out overlayfs parameter in /boot/boot.cmd file to disable overlays and recompile boot.cmd to boot.scr file.
