Hi all,
I've posted this question on the U-boot list since I thought that
would be the place, but it doesn't seem so.
I've never used yaffs2 before and wanted to try it out.
I've patched my kernel (2.6.28) and created a jaffs2 partition on my
nand flash device. I have two partitions on this 256MB chip as seen
via mtd in u-boot. I also populated the filesystem with a few test
files and some empty directories.
>From u-boot I cannot mount the filesystem I have created. I get the
following errors but not sure what the error could be. I have 128MB of
ram so memory can't be the problem.
Does anyone have any clues?
