So I formatted and mounted a flash partition as jffs2. What I noted is that, on a 1MByte flash area I loose about 600K immediately. If I use the command df I see that only 30less than 400k are really available. Is it possible that this is the normal overload if a format my flash partition with jffs2? Or am I doing something wtong? Is there any good guide or document that can help me building a jffs2 RW flash partition? Please forgive me if I couldn't be very clear! If needed to help me better I can try to give more information and details about my problem. Thanks in advance, Igor. -- --- BlueWind --- Embedded Systems Design --- Borgo Pieve 55c interno c --- 31033 Castelfranco V.to (TV) --- Tel.: +39 0423 723431 Fax.: +39 0423 744738 --- mailto: igor.trevisan@bluewind.it --- http://www.bluewind.it ------------------------------------------------------------------
