Subject: [Yaffs-archive] about mkyaffs - request
Hi guys,

Thanks for the new CVS code, the NAND_YAFFS_OOB problem finally
got solved :).

This time i'd like to ask about mkyaffs, as I feel that the program
has changed a bit. at first, a segfault occurs if i run the program without
any arguments (won't matter, but i think it's a it un-fancy :D).
And, till now I used mkyaffs as a formatting program (to get a clean new
YAFFS filesystem) by running mkyaffs as 'mkyaffs /dev/mtd0'.
I'm afraid it doesn't work. in order to get a clean partition I have to
mkdir an empty directory, build an image with that using mkyaffsimage and
then mkyaffs-ing the image.

Hope these things get fixed on the next version :)

Again, thanks for the great work :D
