I see.
And what your preferred layered filesystem would be? (and why?)

For new release there will be 3 sfs files in main iso: archpup-132.sfs (core + Xorg)
adrv-132.sfs (openbox+thunar+geany)
archapps-132.sfs (qt firefox and everything else)
If for example archpup-132.sfs need some fixing I can after upload only that file not the whole iso.
development files from archpup-132.sfs will be moved to archdev.sfs, but
adrv and archapps will be self-containable -> nothing will be splitted , that is only right way

mounting cd-rom, dvd, and usb fat-32 formatted all works
but mounting internal hard disk drive (ntfs or ext4), failed with something like 'specify partition type error'
In devices list in spacefm are shown mount loop files, I couldn't disable that.
Interesting is that usb devices are handled properly with spacefm but they don't show at all in thunar without restarting pup-volume-monitor.
If I am able to fix problems with mounting internal disk and hiding loop devices, this could easily replace thunar and pup-volume-monitor.
To remove loop files I added this to /root/.config/spacefm/session*
Like you I had problem mounting internal drives but also USB srives (ext or fat). It says "no mount program was found" and asks for udisks a 3+MB download.
Maybe a custom command to use pmount...

It works also with udevil, only that drives are mounted to /run/root/* instead of /mnt/.
Maybe make custom script apmount with options mount and unmount and call that from spacefm.
I like ArchPup a lot since everything works and works good. But I have a couple of questions ( I am a complete newbie in Arch based Distros so please bear with me):
- how do I set a keymap to Slovenian language?
I have installed additional software (I didn't set any mirrors since default one is really fast!), but I have ran into problems with Wine and VLC:
- I have installed wine (or I think I did) bu it's not showing in menus ...
- I have installed VLC through yaourt but it didn't show up in menu. I tried pacman -S vlc and then it showed up in the menu, but refused to open.
What are proper commands for those two - pacman -S wine and pacman -S vlc or should I do something else ...
I am sorry that I have to ask these elementary questions, but I just want to know ...
For wine first start winecfg from terminal, setup your options and it will then work.
Also you might consider using makesfs wine, to have program wine in sfs module and load only
when you need it.
this way, if you use the * in the distro specs for adrv...the DE/WM can be easily changed...but still keeping the archapps useable.
so on the main.iso it would be:
adrv-openbox-12.12.sfs
archpup-12.12.sfs
and second.iso would be:
adrv-openbox-12.12.sfs
archpup-12.12.sfs
archapps-12.12.sfs
and also having premade and downloadable:
adrv-mate-12.12.sfs
adrv-xfce-12.12.sfs
adrv-kde-12.12.sfs
adrv-e17-12.12.sfs
adrv-lxde-12.12.sfs
to easily switch environments, but still being able to use the archapps.sfs. the user could download the mate.sfs and delete the openbox.sfs....and be ready to use the system using mate, and archapps.
and if the * is used in the distro specs file....it'll see whichever DE sfs the user may have in place. rather than having to rename it or something like that...
I will use 3 sfs files as mentioned in page 2 in post with that funny picture
This:
adrv-mate-12.12.sfs
adrv-xfce-12.12.sfs
adrv-kde-12.12.sfs
adrv-e17-12.12.sfs
adrv-lxde-12.12.sfs
... sounds perfect, but I don't know if DISTRO_ADRVSFS='adrv-*-12.12.sfs' is supported

#RW (top) layer now has a tmpfs, PDEV1 or ${DISTRO_FILE_PREFIX}save mounted on it. calc free space...
[ $FREEK -eq 0 ] && FREEK=`df | grep ' /pup_rw' | tr -s ' ' | cut -f 4 -d ' '`
[ ! $FREEK ] && FREEK=0
This is with new initrd.gz (adrv and ydrv), with old one that had just adrv this error is not
reported. I will atach init script, so you could compare maybe I didn't apply patch correctly.

I do not know why (did you apply the patch "manually"?) but in your init (lines 1879-1880) you have:
mount -t aufs -o udba=reval,diropq=w,dirs=${UMNTRW}${UMNTRO0}${ALAYER}${UMNTRO1}${ZLAYER}${UMNTRO} unionfs /pup_new
mount -t aufs -o udba=reval,diropq=w,dirs=${UMNTRW}${UMNTRO0}${ALAYER}${YLAYER}${UMNTRO1}${ZLAYER}${UMNTRO} unionfs /pup_new
Comment out the first one if you want adrv and ydrv. Comment out the second for ardv only.
I trust that you have added all the needed mount points in initramfs
