Hi,
I am fairly new to the whole mtd thing and wonder if anyone help me. I am
currently developing linuxbios on a motherboard (lanner em-370b). Recently
however I have found that the ROM is not big enough for the kernel. The
board comes with a DiskOnChip socket and wondered if it was possible to
use this to store the kernel + ramdisk etc. However, as I would have to
re-write the filesystem support I am curious as to whether it is possible
to use ROMfs on the device as it is very simple.
Also, are there any docs the basic layout of DOC devices and how they are
accessed?
Thanks,
Tim.

Yes, However from contacting the motherboard manufacturer, it seems that
they are doing some strange address decoding on the board, Which explains
why I could not see the DiskOnChip device.
