OK, I need help with that crazy endianness here... When I look at flash dump in hexdump (or Okteta for gui) I see: 37:0000 | 73 68 73 71 BB 03 00 00 00 00 00 00 88 1B 00 40 | shsq»..........@ bcm47xx is LE, so reading first 4 bytes results in: 0x71'73'68'73 ([3] + [2] + [1] + [0]). That is what I used for my SQSH_MAGIC. However SQUASHFS_MAGIC is 0x73717368. So I need to read [2] + [3] + [0] + [1]... Any help how to achieve that?

My bad, there does not seem to be a good combination of endian swapping which produces the magic you need.

Most of the bcm47xx devices use TRX format for storing kernel and some partition like Squashfs or JFFS2. This is pretty flexible solution, CFE (the bootloader) just writes (and later boots) TRX at some hardcoded place and paritions can vary in the size. However some devices don't use TRX format. Very recently we have discovered ZTE H218N that has kernel and rootfs partitions at some "random" places. This patch allows Linux find a rootfs partition after installing custom image with a CFE bootloader.
