Yaffs2 support in barebox

Yaffs2 support in barebox

[Patrick]

Dear all,

We are using Yaffs2 on our embedded system. This is used from linux for 
the rootfs.
It would be really great if we could flash the rootfs directly from the 
bootloader.Do you know if we could add Yaffs2 support to BareBox ?

Thanks in advance

Patrick

For sure I have nothing against having YAFFS2 support in barebox, but do
you need this to flash your rootfs image? You normally don't need to
support the filesystem you are flashing (as long as you don't want to
access the files in the image)
