I haven't had any time to look at this in the past couple of weeks, but I've just updated my tree to use the latest yaffs2 CVS code and have managed to mount my NAND using YAFFS, write a file system to it, unmount, remount and see it all ok, then reboot and use the NAND as / successfully. Very slow to mount, but seems to work from the minimal testing I've tried so far. J. -- How I wish, how I wish you were | .''`.
