Hi,all: We built a software for GNU/Linux system and use squashfs file system to fit 1.5G files into a single CD. to use the CD, just mount -o loop /dev/cdrom /mnt mount -o loop -t squashfs /mnt/file.squash /the/path will do the job. Now we also want include the BSD binary. I switched to freebsd 2 weeks ago and do not know anything abount it. so I want to ask is there any highly compressed filesystem like cramfs or squashfs [we think a live CD should not ask a user to install any software, so filesystems directedly supported by FreeBSD are perferred] ? Which one is better [I mean compression rate] ? Can anyone gives me a hint? Thank you Sherry Zhang
