UML's COW facility is a UML-specific implementation. The only
general-purpose implementation I know of offhand would be to use LVM's
snapshotting capabilities, but that seems not to be the best-tested
part of LVM (or perhaps it's just that you have problems if it uses all
the space you allocated for it).

I didn't write a whole, free operating system, either. I wrote some pieces
and invited other people to join me by writing other pieces. So I set an
example. I said, "I'm going in this direction. Join me and we'll get
there." And enough people joined in that we got there. -- R M Stallman
