【转】How to modify squashfs image

You cannot modify squashfs image directly but you can uncompress it, apply changes and compress it again.

Create temporary directory and enter it:

$ mkdir squashfs-temp
$ cd squashfs-temp

To uncompress squashfs image (into squashfs-root directory) use unsquashfs command:

$ unsquashfs /live/image/livefs.squashfs

After applying required changes you can compress it using mksquashfs command:

$ mksquashfs squashfs-root/ livefs.squashfs -noappend -always-use-fragments
