+## Avoid using /usr/lib/bootc/storage for floating images

+Because images and in particular *layers* of images can be removed over time as

+in the LBI storage are removed. In the future, this restriction may be lifted,
+but at the current time you can only configure this additional storage
+for logically bound images.
