how to merge sfs files?

[Phneoix]

Hi,
i have created multiple sfs modules for different softwares. I want to merge some of those files. Can anyone point as to how to merge multiple sfs modules in a single file.

Also is it possible to load sfs modules from command line bypassing gui prompt.

Thanks

You can use my sfs merger tool in my nicOS-Utility-Suite. If sfs_load is used, the commandline for loading sfs quietly is as follows: sfs_load -c -q FullPathOfSfs1 sfs2 sfs3 etc.
Example: sfs_load -c -q /mnt/home/1.sfs 2.sfs 3.sfs (you may have to supply the full paths of every sfs you want to load). SFS's must be in either /mnt/home or in the subdirectory of your puppy files otherwise you will still get a prompt.

Code: Select all

unsquashfs -d /tmp/a /path/to/a.sfs
unsquashfs -d /tmp/b /path/to/b.sfs
cp -a /tmp/a/* /tmp/b/
mksquashfs /tmp/b /tmp/c.sfs -comp zstd -Xcompression-level 19 -b 256K -no-exports -no-xattrs
sfs_load /tmp/c.sfs
