Immutability#

This is a work in progress!

blendOS's immutability is layered, like any other immutable distro. Here's how it works:

(mermaid chart here)

  1. overlayfs is used to mount a read-only filesystem atop /usr/ and /var/lib/pacman
  2. A read-write filesystem is mounted atop /usr/local for custom system-wide configuration
  3. /etc/ and the user's home folder remain writeable
