+#### LEAPP_OVL_IMG_FS_EXT4
+During the execution of IPUWorkflow the process requires creation of internal
+disk images for the correct virtualisation of the host storage and creation
+of OverlayFS (OVL) layer. During that time these images are formatted with
+XFS filesystem by default. However for some system setups this could be
+problematic and could lead sometimes to issues. For these uncommon problems
+it is possible to specify `LEAPP_OVL_IMG_FS_EXT4=1` when running leapp to
+instruct the use of the EXT4 file system instead.
