Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netbootxyz/netboot.xyz/issues/1588

Describe the bug
Similar to #1313 , Kali Linux 2024.4 now has a filesystem.squashfs.part3, which is not being loaded.

To Reproduce
Netboot Live-Kali, current version 2024.4. Current version of netboot.xyz has this issue.

Expected behavior
Should download filesystem.squashfs.part3 and concat on top of filesystem.squashfs

Additional thoughts
I feel like rather than simply adding a part3, putting off the issue of a part4 for later, a loop that checks for part${N} and downloads each part until all N parts are downloaded may be a better approach.

See my patch commit in my fork for a potential approach: github.com/BrianCArnold/docker-mod-layers@fe08d4aed8

Created PRs to allow Debian-{10..12} and Ubuntu-24.04 to pull up to 10 (20GB?!) of squashfs parts.

Kali should be fixed now, thanks for the MRs, I had to make a few tweaks to get it working. 2025.1 actually dropped back to 2 parts, but I'll see about rolling that out to the others as well.
