Subject: kobject_add failed for physmap-flash.0
Date: Tue, 13 Feb 2007 15:17:41 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200702131517.41184.ngustavson@emacinc.com> (raw)
I'm booting with JFFS2 on an ARM processor using 2.6.20-rc7.
I'm parsing the Redboot partition table to allocate the flash.
It works, but always spits out the crazy error message shown below.
I've googled around but haven't found any reference to it.
Has anyone else seen this?
