Description-en: Helper scripts to make filesystems immutable
This is a set of scripts that make immutable the root and other filesystems.
Using aufs they pack a tmpfs filesystem and the filesystem forcing
changes to be written to the tmpfs.
.
The root filesystem is protected by an initramfs script. Other filesystems
are protected by an init script. All protected filesystems become read-only
ensuring their immutability even on power-offs.
.
This can be used for public computers to prevent damage or changes.
