You don't "get" it. You create one from a directory containing the files you want to be in the file system image. A SquashFS image can be created by using the command

mksquashfs /path/to/dir imagename.sqsh

How do you make a read only usb key Linux?

True read-only USB disks require hardware support. Otherwise, you can still erase the disk with the same tools you used to create it in the first place. One method to create a read-only file system, that should work on most Linux distributions, is to use SquashFS. Create a directory (such as squash) and put the files you want on the disk in it. Create a SquashFS image of your directory. mksquashfs ./squash squash.img Partition the flash drive (such as with cfdisk or GParted). Make the partition the same size as or slightly larger than your SquashFS image. Write the SquashFS image to the partition you created. dd if=squash.img of=/dev/sdb1 bs=512.

What is the difference between hidden files and system files?

System files are files the operating system needs to function (and they may be hidden). Hidden files are those files that are not displayed when you show a directory listing. A file can be both a system file and a hidden file, but a hidden file does not have to be a system file, nor does a system file need to be hidden.
