Mksquashfs is failing
I am trying to burn image to SD using mix firmware and it fails as below. Looks like some invalid options are being passed to mksquashfs. Wondering how I can get the full mksquashfs being used, so that I can debug this further.

We very recently fixed this so that it would be easier to see mksquashfs errors, but I don’t think that update will be out until midweek.
You are getting an unexpected error, though. It looks like you’re using Linux. What version of mksquashfs are you using?
