# squashfuse\_ll(1)

mount a SquashFS archive with low-level FUSE

## NAME

**squashfuse\_ll** – mount a SquashFS archive with low-level FUSE

## SYNOPSIS

**squashfuse\_ll** \[**-o** *options*\] *archive* *mountpoint*

## DESCRIPTION

**squashfuse\_ll** mounts the SquashFS filesystem using FUSE *archive* on the directory *mountpoint*. It is generally compatible with  [squashfuse(1)](/squashfuse/1.md) but it uses the higher performance low-level FUSE interface and it supports multi-threading.

See the [squashfuse(1)](/squashfuse/1.md) man page for options.  Note that some of the fuse(8) library options are only supported on high-level FUSE and so do not apply. These additional options are also supported, including some that are normally supported only in high-level FUSE:

- **-o** **timeout=N**

  idle N seconds for automatic unmount

- **-o** **uid=N**

  set file owner to uid N

- **-o** **gid=N**

  set file group to gid N
