Some folks want to mount the rootfs readonly and add an overlayfs on top of it. See #87 (comment) It would be great if booster supported this use-case.

Systemd supports an extra option in fstab systemd.volatile=overlay https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-fstab-generator.html#systemd.volatile= that does it.

We should probably have a boot option, e.g. booster.volatile that acts as a subset of systemd functionality and supports overlay only for now.

I second this as it is an essential feature for getting booster to support read-write mode on iso9660 filesystems when it is being used for ISO creation.
