edimax firmware leads to unsquashfs endless loop #88

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. extract-ng.sh  
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The output looks like it should. But the process never ends. I have a unsuqshfs 
process looping forever:
root     11801 90.6  0.0   7660   592 pts/3    R    00:36   1:41 
./src/squashfs-2.1-r2/unsquashfs -dest /mypath/out/rootfs 
/mypath/out/image_parts/rootfs.img

$ extract-ng.sh EW7438RPN_Edimax_1.13_upg.bin out

svn checkout from 2013-03-18; extract-ng.sh r389
OS: Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS 64bit

Please provide any additional information below.

- using unsquashfs-lzma instead of unsquashfs from the same directory seems to 
work. However this must be called manually.
- This device ist sold by many vendors, eg Smartlink, Medion, Sitecom, 
Intellilink, Logilink... All have their own firmware for the deivce and all of 
them have that problem.

It seems the firmware's filesystem is improperly identified by binwalk.
