Here's what I had to do: 1. Copy the sources (not link them). 2. Include the JFFS drivers. 3. Use make oldconfig (make xconfig is not properly supported by one of the MTD make files) In a previous try I also had to fix one of the sources which had an extra parameter defined, but in my finally-successful build this problem did not show up. So the problem I had - lock up when issuing a umount - is resolved, but it was not easy getting there :) I can't explain why the MTD version that ships with the 2.4.24 kernel has this problem and I can't find any reference to it searching the newsgroups, etc. Mark Richards > -----Original Message----- > From: Matthew S.
