Missing squashfs from kernel ? or kernel modules ?

[arthurlutz]

On ubuntu xenial I’m trying to use snaps. It’s failling after having downloaded the snap on mounting a squashfs file :

# systemctl status snap-core-1691.mount
● snap-core-1691.mount – Mount unit for core
Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/snap-core-1691.mount; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Tue 2017-05-30 10:11:56 UTC; 6min ago
Where: /snap/core/1691
What: /var/lib/snapd/snaps/core_1691.snap
Process: 30182 ExecMount=/bin/mount /var/lib/snapd/snaps/core_1691.snap /snap/core/1691 -t squashfs -o nodev,ro (code=exited, status=32)

Squashfs is indeed not compiled into the Globalscale kernel:

glasgall@latte:~$ zgrep SQUASH /proc/config.gz
# CONFIG_SQUASHFS is not set

You can build a kernel (following the instructions on the wiki) with support for it compiled in or as a module, but you’ll have to give up wifi support until Globalscale gives us source for the Marvell 8W8897 driver so we can build it for custom kernels.
