=======================

Squashfs is a compressed read-only filesystem for Linux.
-It uses zlib/lzo/xz compression to compress files, inodes and directories.
-Inodes in the system are very small and all blocks are packed to minimise
-data overhead. Block sizes greater than 4K are supported up to a maximum
-of 1Mbytes (default block size 128K).

Squashfs is intended for general read-only filesystem use, for archival
use (i.e. in cases where a .tar.gz file may be used), and in constrained
