[SOLVED] Remastering question: how do I 'extract' (mount?) a .tcz?

<< < (2/2)

roberts:
Since we are standardizing on squashfs, and therefore, it could be assumed that squashfs-tools-4.0.tcz is loaded, you can use unsquash.

unsquash --help

To view contents:
unsquashfs -ls moc.tcz
unsquashfs -lls moc.tcz

To extract into moc/ directory:
unsquash -info -d moc/ moc.tcz

robc:
Are there any speed advantages of using unsquash over rsync or cp for installing extensions to RAM?
If there is a speed advantage would the squashfs-tools be included in the base?

roberts:
A special cp construct is being used in 2.5 with improved results and space savings too.
