Does NetBSD have any equivalent of SquashFS? This is used heavily in the

I'd prefer to re-use a known good solution rather than reinventing our own.
No.
I assume the "No" meant squashfs instead of re-using a known solution ;)

We don't need to limit ourselves to things readily supported by NetBSD.
It's a simple file system driver, not a mission to Mars. If we're
absolutely convinced we need it, we write it. It might even be possible
to get The NetBSD Foundation or someone else to sponsor
straightforward-to-understand drivers which fit under the general scheme
of using NetBSD as an embedded platform.
