Subject: 2.5.7{,-rmk1}: jffs2 on root patch
Date: Tue, 2 Apr 2002 13:28:19 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020402132818.A10402@friction.hpl.hp.com> (raw)

2.5.7-rmk1 (and apparently any 2.5.7 kernel, hence the cross-posting)
requires the following patch, if you wish to use a jffs2 file system
as your root.  Without the patch, mount_block_root() won't attempt to
use jffs2.
