1 Fusecloop is FUSE mounter for compressed loop images.
2 These images can be found on Knoppix and Knoppix like CD's such as DSL.
4 About SliTaz patch :
6 1- Add transparent support for accelerated knoppix, V0, V1 and V2 (current)
7 format.
9 2- Add new V3 format to build huge cloop images.
10 * The index is compressed and uses 32 bits lengths instead of 64 bits offsets.
11 * The length msb is set to mark a duplicate block and the remining bits give
12 the block number.
13 * The index is moved to the file end. The cloop creation tool holds the index
14 in memory instead of the datas. This reduces memory needs by 5000.
15 $ genisoimage -R myDVD/ | create_compressed_fs 131072 > myDVD.cloop
17 3- Any format cloop can be converted to V2 format for knoppix compatibility.
18 $ extract_compressed_fs myDVD.cloop --convert-to-v2 > myDVDinV2.cloop
20 create_compressed_fs and extract_compressed_fs are available here:
