Subject: [Yaffs] Flashing yaffs2 image to NAND
Dear mailing-list,

I am using yaffs2 with success on one of our prototypes. Currently I
build a rootfs compressed on a tar.gz image. To flash this image I boot
my target using NFS, mount the yaffs2 partition and uncompress the
rootfs image on that partition. It works perfectly but obliges me to
first boot the kernel on NFS. This is not a problem for prototyping but
for production it would be really simpler (and faster) to flash an image
directly from the bootloader without using NFS.

Could you please tell me what is the usual solution with yaffs2 for
production ?

Thanks in advance

Patrick
