Dear All,
I have a pxa board with samsung nand 64MB k91208UOM
loaded. I have been trying to implement yaffs on a 2.6.12.1 kernel but
all well and good untill I umount the nand partition , nothing is
retained
[root@Sarva /mnt]#mount -t yaffs /dev/mtdblock3 /mnt/nand/
yaffs: dev is 32505859 name is "(unavailable)"
yaffs: Attempting MTD mount on 31.3, "(unavailable)"
block 1 is bad
block 5 is bad
block 8 is bad
block 17 is bad
block 21 is bad
block 24 is bad
block 33 is bad
and so on

and my .config of the kernel has these options

When ever i build the kernel i get to see these errors
fs/yaffs/yaffs_fs.c:169: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type

Does anyone have any clues why this might be happening.
