Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit List-Id: Linux MTD discussion mailing list List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Hi! I now did a kernel update (in fact, I started over with a new kernel) and am now using 2.6.18-RC6 from kernel.org. I have read access to the flash, rootfs is mounted correctly but at first write attempt I get: [42949375.150000] Freeing init memory: 96K [42949376.480000] Erase at 0x00cc0000 failed immediately: -EROFS. Is the sector locked? [42949377.520000] Erase at 0x00c80000 failed immediately: -EROFS. Is the sector locked? [42949378.560000] Erase at 0x00c40000 failed immediately: -EROFS. Is the sector locked? [42949379.600000] Erase at 0x00c00000 failed immediately: -EROFS. Is the sector locked? I had hoped that the P30 chips would be supported now, but it seems they are not fully. How can I unlock the sectors, if that is really the issue here. This is really starting to scare me a little ;) Thanks in advance!
