mount a DOC2000 [newbie]

[Eric Laly]

	Hello all,

I want to install a bootable system on a DOC2000 on a PC104 board 
without using Msys binaries drivers.
To do so, I've made a bootable floppy and I want to mount the DOC in 
order to "copy" the system.
I've used a 2.4.18 kernel.
The DOC2000 is recognized (when I make a 'cat /proc/mtd', the system 
says "mtd0: ... DiskOnChip2000".
But the  NFTL driver says "sorry, we don't support UnitSizeFactor of !
=1 yet", and I can't make a fdisk or mke2fs.

I've made some searchs and the conclusion is to make  a 'dformat' with 
the DOC42.EXB. Is this right ?
If so, could someone provide the DOC42.EXB (or a link) because I've 
only the DOC514.EXB and there is no trace of DOC42.EXB on msys site.
If no, could you point me my error(s) ? (I've even tried the latest CVS 
on ftp://ftp.uk.linux.org/pub/people/dwmw2/mtd/cvs/ but the modules 
don't compile...)

	Thanks in advance.
	Eric Laly.

Why so old? This should be fixed in 2.4.21.

It's feasible that it's just because we dropped support for kernels so
old and broken. Add stuff like BUG_ON() to the compatmac.h file again
any you may have more joy.
