I'm making a my own livecd. I decide to use aufs to mount /.so i installed aufs3 in portage tree by
Code:
emerge aufs3


I uses gentoo-sources-3.5.2 and I have added "sys-fs/aufs3 kernel-patch" to package.use.

No errors and warnings are reported,but the kernel has nothing changed. I recompiled the kernel and found that no aufs modules.

How to install and use aufs correctly?

The kernel-patch flag will modify your kernel so that it is able to load the aufs kernel module. It will not add support for aufs directly.

Verify that there is a match between:
Code:
# eselect kernel show
# uname -r
# find /lib/modules -name aufs.ko
