NAME

squashfuse — mount a SquashFS archive with FUSE

SYNOPSIS

squashfuse [−o options] archive mountpoint

DESCRIPTION

squashfuse mounts the SquashFS filesystem archive on the directory mountpoint. The filesystem can be unmounted using umount(8) or fusermount(8). The squashfuse implementation is single-threaded.

Options supported by the fuse(8) library are supported. In addition the following options are supported:

−o offset=N

offset N bytes into archive to mount

−o subdir=PATH

mount subdirectory PATH as filesystem root

−o notify_pipe=PATH

named pipe that will receive ’s’ (success) or ’f’ (failure) when the mountpoint is ready

Here is a selection of generally useful FUSE library options:

−h, −-help

print help

−V, −-version

show FUSE version

−d, −o debug

enable debug output (implies −f)

−f

foreground operation

−o allow_other

allow access by other users

−o allow_root
