I don't get why machines running the same Linux distribution couldn't actually do the same. BT2 would indeed work very well for this.



Nixos/guix might be a good fit for rootfs on ipfs? Comes with a local cache, and you could overlay local changes (eg: /etc/passwd)?


Actually not exactly rootfs on ipfs, but with NixOS is fairly easy to make it wipe data on reboot, here's an example article[1]. The idea is to only keep state we care about and rebuild the system on every boot.
