how to mount a root filesystem stored on MTD device?

how to mount a root filesystem stored on MTD device?

[Xiaogeng (Shawn) Jin]

I've read the MTD/JFFS howto but still cannot get it. Right now I've 
been able to enable MTD devices and mount jffs2. I set bootargs to 
'root=/dev/mtdblock0' on PPCBoot and use tftpboot to boot the kernel via 
network. But the boot process doesn't succeed due to unability to mount 
root filesystem.

Here is the message showing that mtd devices have been found.

Communications AB.

But here it complains that root fs hasn't been mounted.

Root-NFS: No NFS server available, giving up.
VFS: Unable to mount root fs via NFS, trying floppy.
request_module[block-major-2]: Root fs not mounted
VFS: Cannot open root device "mtdblock0" or 02:00
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 02:00

Any instructions or hints? Thanks a lot.
