Hi,
 Iam using intels 28F128 Strata flash, According to its data sheet
its erase sector size is 128KB.
But with 2.4.2 kernel + rmk2 (patch,diff) + mtd patch , the erase sector
size
is 256KB.
As 5 sectors have to be reserved for garbage collection in jffs2. When i
make a
1MB partition iam left with no space on the jffs2 partition.
How can i make the erase sector size to 128KB, is this configurable and
if so
what should i do change it.

thanks and regards
ashok
