All of the content (including the header) in RomFS appears to be aligned to 0x1000 byte blocks, the first block starts at 0x1000. Starting with the second block, every block begins with a SHA-256 hash. This hashes the whole 0x1000-byte block following this block. For the last block, this hash hashes the first block at 0x1000. The total RomFS filesize is always at least 0x4000.
+
The RomFS is wrapped inside a IVFC hash-tree container, and the actual data is structured like a node-based tree, starting at the root level directory node, moving down to other directory and file nodes. Each directory node  has pointers to child directory nodes and siblings, together with a pointer to the first file node for that directory. Each file node has pointers to their next file node, together with information about the actual file data.
