Description

squashfs is an open and free compressed read-only filesystem. It is used in embedded devices, live-CDs, or in packaging. The original implementation resides in the linux kernel, but there are also userspace implementations.

This project provides a userspace implementation of the squashfs filesystem containing a set of command line tools and a C library.

Example usage:

> mkdir /Squashy > mount -t userlandfs -o "sqshfs ~/foobar.sqfs /Squashy" /Squashy

Install

Channel stable v1.6.0-1

This app is curated in HaikuPorts. Install it from there, it is already available in HaikuDepot.

pkgman install sqsh_tools

Download version 1.6.0-1 (x86_64) hpkg

Careful: the file comes from HaikuPorts' own server, but installing it by hand is not the way in. It is pkgman that resolves the dependencies an .hpkg does not carry with it, and a package installed on its own may simply not run. Use the pkgman command above, unless you know exactly why you want the file.
