cramfs mount problems

cramfs mount problems

[Malcolm Dodds]

Hi,

I'm having a strange problem. I create a cramfs image, mount it and then look
at the contents - these are wrong! In fact they are my root filesystem
again.I'm at a complete loss.

Here's what I've done:

# uname -r
2.4.2_hhl20
# mkdir /tmp/cram
# cp /bin/ash /bin/cat /bin/ls /tmp/cram
# mkcramfs /tmp/cram /tmp/cramfs.img
  ash
  cat
  ls
Directory data: 124 bytes
  0.00% (+1648 bytes)   .ÿüx
Everything: 92 kilobytes
Super block: 76 bytes
CRC: 4731a9e0
# eraseall /dev/mtd4
Erased 2560 Kibyte @ 0 -- 100% complete.
# cp /tmp/cramfs.img /dev/mtd4

# mount -t cramfs /dev/mtdblock4 /mnt

drwxrwxr-x    1 root     root          164 Jan  1  1970 var

Any help greatly appreciated - I'm a bit stuck here.

Malcolm.
