Subject: Re: No space left on almost empty JFFS2 filesystem
Date: Wed, 25 Jun 2003 11:20:20 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030625182020.GA15879@rinconnetworks.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20030625155846.GA15628@rinconnetworks.com>

So I tried:

mkfs.jffs2 --pad=0x80000 --little-endian --squash -e 0x20000 -d /home/vangool/jffs -o jffs.img

thinking that that would give me 3 erase blocks but I still get the
same error. Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks.

Paul
