UnionFS and remastering

[BillS]

Using 3.8.1, I tweaked and rebuilt the kernel from the kernel-source-2.6.11.
Then modified the minirt.gz with the new modules and kernel.

But the remastered iso fails to boot with
--Creating /ramdisk (dynamic size= ......
--ERROR: CANNOT UNITE READ-ONLY MEDIA AND INITIAL RAMDISK system halted
/linux: /cannot create /var/run/tmp

There was no unionfs.o with my `uname -r` value.

I did:
------
apt-get install unionfs-source
find /var -name "unionfs*"
l /var/lib/dpkg/info/unionfs-source.list
cd /usr/src
ls
bunzip2 < unionfs.tar.bz2 |tar xvf -
ls
cd modules/directory.
-----
This resulted in a 'modules' directory, but no instructions about where to put that directory. Some apriori knowledge is needed here.

Please help...

I tracked down and found that the position didn't make any difference. But upon running the make, it stopped because of a warning in:

copyup.c line 68 size may be uninitialized.

I just set it =0 and the build ran without reporting any problems.

Moving on.....
