Hi Charles, I just wanted to state for the record that I am happy with the behavior of yaffs_guts.c revision 1.98 in terms of fixing the symlink delete issue. I was able to replicate the issue by simply creating a symbolic link, then deleting it, then immediately pulling the power. I did 4 runs like this, and the fs became unmountable somewhere between 237 and 405 attempts. For the record, this was on a '12:30pm PST on Nov 6, 2007' snapshot. Then, I rebuilt with a '1:30pm PST on Dec 7, 2009' snapshot, and it did 5,755 attempts with no problems. And also, the new code was able to mount a filesystem generated by the previous code, that the previous code could not mount. Thanks for your efforts in fixing this. Best Regards, Chris David
