The Pyra kernel also has aufs patched in, which is needed for dbp to work.
Couldn't it use "overlay" fs, which is in the mainline kernel? It's used by several bootable live systems that I'm aware of.
The problem was that overlay didn't work with filesystems that don't have the same features. In this case it couldn't handle overlaying ext or squashfs on top of fat. I think that was needed to redirect writes on the package dir to the sd card. I'm not that involved in the dbp development, so I'm not entirely sure what's going on exactly, and if it could be handled in another way.
