Solution

  • This problem provide a module squashfs it's not include into kernel, to verify this :

    grep squashfs /proc/filesystems
    

    If the result is empty, then the module is probably not load.

    To verify if the module exist in your kernel you need following this command :

    modprobe squashfs
    

    If you have got an error, then your kernel doesn't support 'squashfs' module.
