Two things...
1. Your makefile helped, but the static 'erase' binary is nearly 2MB
(0.5MB stripped); I need this for the target and can't afford that much
space. When I add '-shared' to CFLAGS, 'erase' is down to a manageable
size, but then I see that the libc.so.6 (libc-2.2.5.so) that it needs is
over 5MB (1.6M stripped). Still too big. Are there other solutions for
erasing or for library?
2. Also, I'm still getting...
"undefined reference to: 'cpu_to_je16'" and
"undefined reference to: 'cpu_to_je32'"
errors when building eraseall.c. It seems it uses these, but the only
place I see them defined (as macros) is in mkfs.jffs2.c. I could always
just duplicate those from mkfs.jffs2 and put them into eraseall, but I'm
wondering if there are other issues involved.
