Machines/users of squashfs 4.0 with lzma?

[Leon Woestenberg]

Hello Otavio, all,

I saw you as the committer/author for the current bitbake for squash
4.0 stuff with lzma patches, thanks for that.

As lzma support is now (almost!) landed upstream, I would like to see
what the impact is of moving to the upcoming 4.x release.

I have a patch on standby that moves from 4.0+patches to the current
SVN where lzma is built-in.

However, first, who is using this??

Regards,

I'm using it to build the squashfs+aufs-on-ext3 setup for the 
omap3-touchbook machine. Using 3.1 gives me a kernel panic :)

I guess it is compatible with current squashfs available on 2.6.31
right? In this case it is OK I guess.

Do you have a backport of the lzma support in kernel to 2.6.31?

Please do.

I use it to our OS with a setup similar to Koen's.

That's what I'm not 100% sure about...

Yes.
