Stepahn I found and ??corrected?? a problem, though I don't know it is 100%
yet. THis is in cvs.
At best du only provides an estimate and does not account for various other
overheads (eg. bad blocks, reserved blocks). statfs() , as used by 'df',
gives a better indicator of free space.
Stephan: please try the new yaffs_fs and see if this helps.
