Hi,
I am using Linux kernel 2.4.20-8 as host.For the
target compact nand flash I am using 2.6.10 kernel.I
want the target flash detected as MTD for mounting
JFFS2 file system on it.
Please correct if I am wrong.The kernel 2.6.10 should
be patched for latest NAND mtd drivers.
I have tried the latest patch 2008-January.txt but it
was not successful because probably the patch is for
latest kernel.
Can I get the patch for 2.6.20?
What else I should do to detect the compact flash as
MTD device using a host or using NFS.

Thanking you,

You can't.  Compact flash is not real flash, nor does it have an
interface to present the real flash.
