read-only file system for Linux, which is intended for use in tiny-sized and

embedded systems, and anywhere else you'd want to use a compressed file system.

With this document, you'll learn how to prepare a SquashFS-ready

> When creating tiny-sized and embedded Linux systems, every byte of the storage device (floppy, flash disk, etc.)
|
|
is very important, so compression is used everywhere possible. Also, compressed file systems are frequently needed
|
|
for archiving purposes. For huge public archives, as well as for personal media archives, this is essential.
|
|
</P
|
|
><P
|
|
> SquashFS brings all this to a new level. It is a read-only file system that lets you compress whole file systems or
|
|
single directories, write them to other devices/partitions or to ordinary files, and then mount them directly (if
|
|
a device) or using a loopback device (if it is a file). The modular, compact system design of SquashFS is bliss.
|
|
For archiving purposes, SquashFS gives you a lot more flexibility and performance speed than a tarball archive.

>reiserfs</TT
|
|
> or <TT
|
|
CLASS="filename"
|
|

> file system. You have to make sure
|
|
there is an appropriate patch for your kernel version. It should be located in
|
|
<TT
|
|
CLASS="filename"
|
|
>kernel-patches/linux-2.x.y</TT
|
|
> subdirectory of the SquashFS source tree. Also, remember
|
|
that in most cases you will need a <EM
|
|
>clean</EM
|
|
> (original) Linux kernel
|
|
source from <A
|
|
HREF="http://kernel.org/"
|
|
TARGET="_top"
|
|
>kernel.org</A
|
|
>. If your kernel source is
|
|
from a distro vendor, it may be already pre-patched with custom vendor patches, and patching
|
|
with a SquashFS patch will almost surely not work, as SquashFS patches are made against
|
|
<EM
|
|
>original</EM
|
|
> Linux kernels.
|
|
However some distributions make avaliable SquashFS-kernel-modules and SquashFS-tools packages from the repositories.
|
|
If you consider to use these packages from your distro, you don't need to patch your kernel or
|
|
to build SquashFS tools from source. In such case, make sure to get the proper module for your kernel from the distro
|
|
repositories. Please note that doing so you will have an easy installation step, but no control on
|
|
kernel configuration parameters if you mind to use SquashFS for particular purposes (eg. for embedded systems).

Whether you want to have your whole root file system on a single media (a single partition, a single floppy),

or have a modular system (several floppies or disk partitions), the procedure is almost identical.

Creating such Linux systems themselves is out of scope of this HOWTO - there are dedicated HOWTOs and guides
