Found the right options to mkisofs in an old mail about USB drive
support in 012... (all this seems very familiar! ;)

Anyhow, the CD booted, but it stops with "Failed to add
/Mount/SquashFS/Packages-List-Base into /Mount/TmpFS/Programs" and same
thing for all other squashfs files, then the kernel panics when not
finding init.

Does the squashfs files need to be repacked with the updated squashfs tool?
