--disable-overlay disables overlay but doesn't place files in a useful place

[haxwithaxe]

I'm trying to build an lxc image on a system that has zfs as the rootfs. When I run distrobuilder build-lxc distrobuilder.yml tmp-target --debug --cleanup=false --disable-overlay=true --cache-dir alpine-3.22-cache with or without --disable-overlay=true the scripts I have in the files section get transferred to the overlay directory in the cache and not the rootfs directory and they aren't available for the post-files action.

Also I created an ext4 zvol and tried building from there but it still detected the zfs filesystem and disabled the overlay automatically.

If that's the intended behavior then please ignore this. It would be nice if there was a more useful fallback behavior when the overlay isn't available.

This is my initial effort to use distrobuilder. Sorry if I'm missing something obvious.

For completeness here is the distrobuilder config I'm using:
