permanent pip install in run-from-ram with overlayFS

For an embedded system, I wanted to have a few python tools installed from pip to be present at boot time without needing network to rebuild.

mv /usr /usr.dist
mkdir /usr
mount -t overlay overlay -o lowerdir=/usr.dist,upperdir=/usr,workdir=/tmp/usr /usr
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install semantic_version
pip install incremental
pip install pymodbus
umount /usr
mount -o remount,rw /media/sda1
mv /usr /media/sda1/usr.post
mount -o remount,ro /media/sda1
mv /usr.dist /usr
mkdir -p /tmp/usr
mount -t overlay overlay -o lowerdir=/media/sda1/usr.post,upperdir=/usr,workdir=/tmp/usr /usr

I use this technique to also have Oracle Java 8 and Apache Karaf running cleanly in run-from-ram mode without overloading the memory with storage. The embedded box has a read-only memory chip and system is clean and brand new at each reboot.

To update, we remount media rw, rsync then remount ro again.
