-2.0 | force mksquashfs version 2.1 to create a version 2.0
filesystem |
-all-root or -root-owned | make all files in the target file system owned by root (UID=0, GID=0) |
-always-use-fragments | divide all files greater than block size into fragments (2.x only,
will result in greater compression ratios) |
-b [block size] | use [block size] filesystem block size (32 Kbytes default) - this can be either 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192, 16384 or 32768 |
-be or -le | force a big or little endian file system, respectively |
-check-data | enable additional file system checks |
-e [file1] ( [file2] ... ) | specify which files and/or directories to omit
from the new file system that is to be created |
-ef [file] | specify a file which contains the list of
files/directories to exclude |
-force-gid [GID] | set all group IDs in target file system to [GID]
(can be specified as a name or a number) |
-force-uid [UID] | set all user IDs in target file system to [UID]
(can be specified as a name or a number) |
-info | print files, their original size and compression ratio, as they are added to
the file system |
-keep-as-directory | if the source is a single directory, force this directory to be a subdirectory
of the root in the created file system |
-noappend | if the destination file/device already contains a squashed file system,
overwrite it, rather than append the new data to an existing file system |
-no-duplicates | do not detect/remove duplicate file names |
-noD or -noDataCompression | do not compress the data |
-noF or -noFragmentCompression | do not compress the fragments (2.x only) |
-no-fragments | do not generate fragment blocks (2.x only, this will
produce almost the same filesystem as 1.x did) |
-noI or -noInodeCompression | do not compress the inode table |
-nopad | do not pad the resulting file system to a multiple of 4 KBytes |
-root-becomes [name] | can be used while appending to a pre-existing squashed file system: it will make a new root,
and [name] directory will contain all pre-existing files/directories
|
-version | print the version, copyright and license message |
