Thanks, Uwe! The hints given at the URL you provided indeed helped me out. Here are the details:
Upgrade to linux-headers-2.6.28-13-generic and linux-headers-2.6.28-13. Bug still present. The module lzma mentioned in the above link is not available through my Ubuntu 9.04's module-assistant GUI. Even after installation of lzma-source, the module-assistant GUI does not show it. However, simply firing up "m-a build lzma" produces a .deb allright, which "dpkg -i" could install. Afterwards, "modprobe -v sqlzma" worked. So far, so good. Quick check: With lzma installed and module sqlzma loaded, squashfs still does not build. That was to be expected. I used emacs to edit inode.c in the archive directly (didn't bother to unpack and repack). After those changes, "m-a build squashfs" ran through with no problem. Also smooth sailing for "m-a install squashfs" , and finally, for "modprobe squashfs". Finally, mounting a squash file system and reading all files also worked. -- module-assistant does not compile squashfs-source https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/384763 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
