Talk:SquashFS

Mainline
Hey, why isn't it part of the mainline kernel yet? 68.168.80.4 02:32, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Compression used
I'd like to see what kind of compression used mentioned (like in the cramfs entry) --157.234.254.6 17:59, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Tiny core uses SquashFS as a loopback mounted archive, symlinked into the main file system. I don't know how that maps into the uses paragraph. Maybe it needs its own. 67.135.185.226 (talk) 19:18, 4 February 2016 (UTC)

User-space squashfs read/extract utility?
I've got a squashfs file, I need to extract a few files from it. How do I do this (from userspace)? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Linas (talk • contribs) 17:24, 17 April 2007 (UTC).
 * On linux, with unsquashfs (part of squashfs-tools in debian-based distros) you can extract it. You can also mount it if your system supports the filesystem, but it is not in the main kernel tree. zorxd (talk) 16:30, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Overview
The Overview section is copied almost word for word from http://squashfs.sourceforge.net/. I don't know if that's really a problem. On the one hand I can't seem to find any license for this page. On the other hand it's an open-source GPL'd project and we're talking about all of maybe 100 words. 85.116.207.246 (talk) 08:46, 21 November 2007 (UTC)


 * It should be written in prose anyway (per WP:MOS, WP:LIST). -- intgr [talk] 11:09, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

Devuan
Now that devuan has achieved its first release, I think it should be added to the list of distros using it for their live CD. (Won't do the edit myself, since I'm no wikipedia editor and have no idea if there's anything speaking against such a change.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2a02:2f09:3040:392:1837:6b71:779d:7b83 (talk) 17:31, September 29, 2017 (UTC)
