"The order won't concern most people. It may be that on one layer you have same-named and same-location files as on a lower layer, in which case the higher ones only will be seen. It might want to order the layers such that later files, say libraries, are on a higher layer.

"Barry, have you heard of zram? It's a very nice kernel module that I use myself on RAM-challenged machines. It improves performance and I think it could be a nice feature for Puppy - Slax and other distros already have it. You can see an example [url=https://github.com/iguleder/roar-ng-ii/blob/master/skeleton/rootfs/etc/init.d/zram]here[/url].
