If the last line (the sixed byte) is 01, according to ELF format, 01 is little endian and 02 is big endian.

To cut the "Linux kernel version 2.6.36" we need to do:
- Get the skip offset: 3163712
- Get the count size: 3226456 - 3163712 = 62.744

cd /tmp
mkdir lower upper workdir overlay
mount -t overlay -o lowerdir=/tmp/lower,upperdir=/tmp/upper,workdir=/tmp/workdir none /tmp/overlay
e.g.:
mount -t overlay -o lowerdir=/tmp/firmwarefs,upperdir=/,workdir=/tmp/workdir none /tmp/overlay
chroot /tmp/overlay /bin/sh
Since
file doesn't recognize it, the vendor probably used a custom SquashFS magic signature. I expect that unsquashfs is also giving you an error about not being able to find a valid superblock. Give sasquatch a try; it's a modified version of unsquashfs that attempts to support such vendor hacks.
