Sounds like you could use ubiblock for that setup, which is suitable for squashfs, and completely independent of ubifs (thus less cpu and memory hungry and easier to setup). You can find some patches floating around, but the *latest* work is here: http://git.free-electrons.com/users/ezequiel-garcia/linux/log/?h=ubiblock-v4-cache-optional And you'll need a patch for mtd-utils as well: http://git.free-electrons.com/users/ezequiel-garcia/mtd-utils Feel free to use it and report any issues. However, be very careful as the driver is a bit experimental yet. Others are already using it, so it should be more or less fine! -- Ezequiel García, Free Electrons Embedded Linux, Kernel and Android Engineering http://free-electrons.com
