The easiest will be to start from the old and now unsupported 2.6.21 back-port: http://git.infradead.org/users/dedekind/ubifs-v2.6.21.git Then you should port the patches which are missing in the 2.6.21 back-port from the 2.6.24 back-port. This is the easiest way to go, IMO. -- Best regards, Artem Bityutskiy (Битюцкий Артём)
