# Pseudo file example
|
|
|
|
# Mksquashfs supports pseudo files, these allow fake files, directories,
|
|
# character and block devices to be specified and added to the Squashfs
|
|
# filesystem being built, rather than requiring them to be present in the
|
|
# source directories.
|
|
#
|
|
# This, for example, allows device nodes to be added to the filesystem without
|
|
# requiring root access.
|
|
|
|
# Mksquashfs 4.1 adds support for "dynamic pseudo files" and a modify operation.
|
|
# Dynamic pseudo files allow files to be dynamically created when Mksquashfs
|
|
# is run, their contents being the result of running a command or piece of
|
|
# shell script. The modifiy operation allows the mode/uid/gid of an existing
|
|
# file in the source filesystem to be modified.
|
|
|
|
# Two Mksquashfs options are supported, -p allows one pseudo file to be
|
|
# specified #on the command line, and -pf allows a pseudo file to be specified
|
|
# containing a list of pseduo definitions, one per line.
|
|
|
|
# Pseudo file examples
|
|
# Run mkquashfs . /tmp/img -pf pseudo-file.examples
|
|
# to see their effect

|
|
# new version number is used without requiring any other shell scripting.
