Hi,

I am using yaffs (CVS) (linux 2.6.8.1, mtd-snapshot: 20041005), and I am able 
to mount the device properly, to write to the flash and erase from the flash. 
But with CONFIG_YAFFS_USE_GENERIC_RW disabled copying back (or cat) doesn't 
work, it is running in an endless loop. For example, catting a simple text 
file will endlessly repeat the contents of that file.  Copying a file will 
not end & create a huge file at the destination.  By enabling 
CONFIG_YAFFS_USE_GENERIC_RW everything is ok. Can someone explain what are 
the benefits of disabling CONFIG_YAFFS_USE_GENERIC_RW (like it is in the 
default Makefile) and what are the exact differences between generic_rw and 
yaffs_rw?

Thanks a lot
   Ulla
