Subject: Permission problem on mtd block device
Date: 02 Jul 2001 08:41:20 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <86r8w0yqhz.fsf@bindaas.org> (raw)
Hi,
I have compiled kernel 2.4.2 and patched it for arm.
I am using an Assabet board.
I have statically compiled the mtd and loaded jffs as modules.
The kernel booted and I got the entry in /proc too.
The outputs of various commands are as follows:
*************************************************************************
/ # ls /dev/mt* -l
crw-r--r-- 1 0 0 90, 0 Jan 1 00:00 /dev/mtd0
brw-r--r-- 1 0 0 31, 0 Jan 1 00:01 /dev/mtdblock0
crw-r--r-- 1 0 0 90, 1 Jan 1 00:00 /dev/mtdr0
/ # ls -al
drwxr-xr-x 12 0 0 1024 Jul 2 2001 .
drwxr-xr-x 12 0 0 1024 Jul 2 2001 ..
drwxr-sr-x 2 0 1000 1024 Jul 2 2001 bin
drwxr-xr-x 3 0 0 1024 Jan 1 00:01 dev
drwxr-xr-x 4 0 0 1024 Jun 30 2001 etc
drwxr-xr-x 3 0 0 1024 Jul 1 2001 lib
/***************The mount point I used**************/
dr-xr-xr-x 1 0 0 0 Jan 1 00:03 mnt
/***************************************************/
dr-xr-xr-x 20 0 0 0 Jan 1 00:00 proc
drwxr-sr-x 2 0 1000 1024 Jul 2 2001 sbin
drwxr-xr-x 2 0 0 1024 Jun 30 2001 tmp
drwxr-sr-x 5 0 0 1024 Jul 2 2001 usr
drwxr-xr-x 5 0 0 1024 Jun 30 2001 var
/ # cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name

mtd1: 00040000 00040000 "bootloader params"
mtd2: 01f80000 00040000 "jffs"
***************************************************************************
Then it I mounted the device using
(i tried mount -t jffs option but it didnt work)
I am using Busybox.
mount /dev/mtdblock0 /mnt
this command works. it gives some directory listing such as..
/ # ls -al /mnt
dr-xr-xr-x 1 0 0 0 Jan 1 00:03 .
drwxr-xr-x 12 0 0 1024 Jul 2 2001 ..
dr-xr-xr-x 1 0 0 0 Jan 1 00:03 001
-r--r--r-- 1 0 0 0 Jan 1 00:03 devices
-r--r--r-- 1 0 0 0 Jan 1 00:03 drivers
but I cannot write to it nor can i delete any file from it ..
what could the problem possibly be??
I would be extremely grateful if i could get an early reply.
thanks in advance
nikunj
