Hello to everyone

I'm trying to develop a prototype based on the NAND flash memories,
but unfortunately I don't have the board yet.

My question: is there an emulator of NAND Flash in Linux,
and can it be used directly by the mtd core?

Thanks a lot
Cosmin

There isn't, although it shouldn't be so hard to update mtdram to do it.
Or you could just use a DiskOnChip :)

I think there was one around, which was used during the development of
YAFFS.
Charles, any pointers ?????

David, can you offer me some concrete types? (web addresses?)

I asked the computer-vendor of university and he was just looking me 
strangely :)
