This patch adds support for squashfs as the root filesystem.
advantages:
- migrate from a existing -ext4 installation and back
with the sysupgrade utility
- existing partition layout will not be lost during switch
- slightly smaller image size as compared to the -ext4 image.
disadvantages:
- needs f2fs + tools. This is because fstools rootdisk.c decides based
on the partition size (currently root partitions > 100 MiB) f2fs is
used as the rootfs_data filesystem.
- rootfs_data is placed into the rootfs partition after the squashfs.
This makes it difficult for tools that expect a /dev/sda${X} device.
It also makes it difficult for data recovery tools as they might not
expect to find a embedded partition or will be slightly confused.
... or will not support f2fs.
For people with existing build configurations: make sure to include mkf2fs
and f2fsck packages into the image. Otherwise the new -squashfs image will
only boot from the ram-overlay.
Note:
All overlay data (configurations/all installed packages/...) will be
placed in inside the rootfs partition (i.e. /dev/sda2) just after the
squashfs image.

This is the buildsystem for the OpenWrt Linux distribution.
To build your own firmware you need a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case
sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack
of a case sensitive file system.
You need gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python, perl, make, find, grep, diff,
unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers installed.
1. Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to obtain all the latest package definitions
defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default
2. Run "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks for all obtained
packages into package/feeds/
3. Run "make menuconfig" to select your preferred configuration for the
toolchain, target system & firmware packages.
4. Run "make" to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build
the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the Linux kernel & all
chosen applications for your target system.
