Background



I'm setting up a Linux environment (Raspbian Stretch for RPi) writing a script that customize everything I need. Some commands are issued using systemd-nspawn.



The file-system is mount in read-only and when it runs on the target the systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service fails because it hasn't configured yet and of course it cannot create anything on the fs.



Question



How to properly setup up this service in such a scenario?



Some ideas



  1. execute systemd-nspawn -b on the host system in order to launch the service once and shutdown (could be done via script?)

  2. leave the system rw for the first boot, than execute a script that automatically setups the file-system in ro and reboots

I would prefer the first way (or a similar one) because I would like to end the deployment with the definitive SD-card image.
