RE: MTD/mtdblock.c uclinux 2.0.38?

One big issue is that JFFS2 seems to rely on the dirent cache, which isn't
present in the 2.0.x kernel. So, I suppose that would have to be backported
from 2.2.x (if that's even a reasonable task).

I don't know what other kernel dependencies (besides dirent cache) there are
for JFFS2... I wonder if anyone has been successful in getting JFFS2
working with 2.0.x?? Any feedback would be appreciated...

thanks,
-mike

I don't even have a 2.0 kernel in the building.
