I've added support for mounting a SquashFS as root with a tmpfs for storing temporary changes to root.

Closing old stuff

Sorry about that. At some point I still plan to add squashfs + overlayfs since it's now mainline. Tho my number one priority is to switch now to Alpine Linux as build root, and a new build system that sucks less that what's now.

Is this still available? Having better-initramfs support live environments in addition to supporting overlayfs and squashfs would be a nice thing to have.

I do not think so I will put effort into this project in any near future, if at all. I no longer use it on daily basis and most likely will archive it at some point.

What are you using instead, if I may ask?

A Dracut on Fedora and my main workstation is running MacOS so this does not apply to it.
