I missed a step - use:

Code:

losetup /dev/loop/3

and it should output the path and name of the file that is mounted there.
(The one that contains the squashfs file system.)

All the same principles are involved, just use the squashfs utilities instead of the cramfs utilities.
(Amazon has switched from cramfs to squashfs in a recent firmware change.)

You don't have to be a developer, these are all just normal system commands for users of the command line.
