Hello,
We have some kind of similar setup in which we split our root file
system and the customers filesystem. In runtime the customers filesystem
is mounted on a fixed point (/opt). Off-course we have designed this
separation from the start, we have 2 separated filesystems. For the
second filesystem you can use just another ptxdist configfile. I don't
know whether you can merge 2 file system images together with ptxdist.
But for this purpose a simple script can automate this.
Another approach can be to support a list of configfiles in stead of
only one. This will give you a single image file which was what you 'v
been asking for in the first place.
Are there any plans to support a list of configfiles?
Kind regards,
Bart.
