I'm using 4GB samsung NAND flash on a AT91RM9200 board, the filesystem is yaffs2.
I got this error message at mount time from yaffs:

After reboot and remount, the "Freechunks verification failure" problem remains, but I can still write data to that partition with error messages:
checkpt blocks available = -5checkpoint invalidatecheckpt blocks available = -5checkpoint invalidatecheckpt blocks available = -5.........checkpt blocks available = -1checkpoint invalidatecheckpt blocks available = -1...checkpt blocks available = 0checkpoint invalidatecheckpt blocks available = 0....checkpoint invalidatecheckpt blocks available = 0checkpoint invalidatecheckpt blocks available = 1checking blocks 1 to 32768 <- the error message ends here
When the partition is full yaffs show errors:
yaffs tragedy: no more eraased blocks!!!!!!!!! Allocator out !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!yaffs tragedy: no more eraased blocks!!!!!!!!! Allocator out !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!yaffs tragedy: no more eraased blocks...
...

Reboot and remount:

To make free space I have to delete files, but I always failed:
[ARM ~]# rm /mnt/data/data.idxyaffs tragedy: no more eraased blocks!!!!!!!!! Allocator out !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!rm: cannot remove '/mnt/data/data.idx': Directory not empty
[ARM ~]# umount /mnt/data/save entry: isCheckpointed 0checkpt blocks available = -5checkpoint byte count 0save exit: isCheckpointed 0
Is there any solution for this?
Thank you very much.
