::Cool, thanks! I’m still unsure why we would advise people to use the squashfs instead of the tarball (like Hydra seems to be doing for producing the images published on the linux-containers image server), but at least the fix in permissions should fix the SSH service.

:::squashfs is preferred because it's quicker to build and extract, as it operates in parallel across cores. You're welcome to use the tarball, but in general working with squashfs provides a better experience.

:::Also the linux containers project seems to favor squashfs, so we're also following their lead. We previously provided them tarballs before squashfs was available, and I think they were re-packing into squashfs anyway. :) [[User:Adamcstephens|Adamcstephens]] ([[User talk:Adamcstephens|talk]]) 18:16, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
