Now i've managed this, but i get the following messages at boot-time: DiskOnChip 2000 found at address 0xD8000 Flash chip found: Manufacturer ID: 98, Chip ID: 75 (Toshiba TC58256FT/DC) 9 flash chips found. Total DiskOnChip size: 288 MiB mtd: Giving out device 0 to DiskOnChip 2000 Ignoring DiskOnChip 2000 at 0xDA000 - already configured Ignoring DiskOnChip 2000 at 0xDC000 - already configured Ignoring DiskOnChip 2000 at 0xDE000 - already configured Possible DiskOnChip with unknown ChipID FF found at 0xe0000 Possible DiskOnChip with unknown ChipID FF found at 0xe2000 Possible DiskOnChip with unknown ChipID FF found at 0xe4000 Possible DiskOnChip with unknown ChipID FF found at 0xe6000 Possible DiskOnChip with unknown ChipID FF found at 0xe8000 Possible DiskOnChip with unknown ChipID FF found at 0xea000 Possible DiskOnChip with unknown ChipID FF found at 0xec000 Possible DiskOnChip with unknown ChipID FF found at 0xee000 NFTL driver: nftlcore.c $Revision: 1.82 $, nftlmount.c $Revision: 1.25 $ NFTL_notify_add for DiskOnChip 2000 NFTL_setup Sorry, we don't support UnitSizeFactor of != 1 yet. Could not find valid boot record Could not mount NFTL device So, i've read in the mtd-jffs-Howto, that i could (or should) format the chip. But if i try this with: ./nflt_format /dev/mtd0 i get always the message: ioctl(MEMGETINFO): Inappropriate ioctl for device Is this something with the 288 MB DOC? With dmesg i get this message: MTD_ioctl Invalid ioctl 80404d01 (MEMGETINFO = 80204d01) MTD_close What can i do? best regards, and thanks in advance, Jens
