A better way is if /etc is the default in rom and /shm/etc-admin is the 
user's changes:

mount -t unionfs -o dirs=/shm/etc-admin:/etc=ro none /etc

That way you don't have the default in shm and you can always access 
etc-admin directly for save and restore.  Last night I was a bit fixated 
on keeping the link /etc->/shm/etc.
