Error whe mounting ubifs volume

Error whe mounting ubifs volume

[Patrick]

Dear mailing-list,

I am using UBI and UBIFS for the first time on a custom board that use a SLC NAND. We use the 3.0.21 kernel with UBI and UBIFS enabled.
I use mkfs.ubifs to generate a ubifs image of my rootfs with the following arguments: -m 2048 -e 129024 -c 4060


I the use the following sequence to flash this image and mount it:

flash_eraseall /dev/mtd4
ubiformat /dev/mtd4
ubiattach -p /dev/mtd4
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -N volume_name -s 128MiB
ubiupdatevol /dev/ubi0_0 my_rootfs.ubifs
mount -t ubifs ubi0:volume_name /media/test

Everything works well but when doing the mount I have the following error:

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/ubi0_0,
       missing codepage or helper program, or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so


On the kernel log I have the following error:

 UBIFS error (pid 397): ubifs_read_node: bad node type (0 but expected 6)
 UBIFS error (pid 397): ubifs_read_node: bad node at LEB 0:0, LEB mapping status 1


I am probably doing something wrong but I am not able to point what's the problem.

Any help is welcome. Thanks in advance

Patrick

Looks like you did not flash your image properly.

Does it work if you just mount an empty volume, then unmount, then mount
again?
