Subject: mtd block readonly low level nand driver cramfs
Date: Thu, 24 Jan 2008 04:42:32 -0500 [thread overview]

Hi,
This might sound quite basic question. This is the first time I am
looking into the MTD code so have some really basic questions.
I am trying to mount a read only fs (cramfs) on the flash. Please let me
know if the following steps are right:
1. Enabled the following in the Kconfig files
CONFIG_MTD_PARITIONS
CONFIG_MTD
CONFIG_MTD_BLOCK_RO
CONFIG_MTD_NAND
CONFIG_MTD_NAND_IDS
After booting the compiled kernel I am able to see the mtdblock under
/proc/devices using 31 Major number.
Now for me to mount the cramfs image that is on the flash I need to
provide the low level nand driver code. This I need to write but before
starting that can any one point me to a reference nand driver code that
is used for read only mount? Which functionality would the MTD require
to be implemented for mounting a cramfs image which is on the flash.
Would appreciate any pointers to how to get started off with this.
thanks in advance for the reply.
M.S
