We eventually would like to mount ext3 on top of inftl in Linux. We are using a 2.6.25.6 kernel, and we have grabbed the latest mtd utilities from the git repository. We have had a hard time coming by a how-to with the latest kernels and modules, so I wanted to post our proposed methodology here. Does the following sequence of events look right? 1. modprobe diskonchip 2. go into the mtd-utils directory and run the "MAKEDEV" script to create the /dev/mtd* entries and the /dev/inftla entries. 3. ntfl_format -i /dev/mtd0 4. modprobe inftl 5. fdisk /dev/inftla and partition as a disk 6. mkfs.ext3 /dev/inftla 7. mount -t ext3 /dev/inftla /mnt Thanks for your help! -- Sarah -- Sarah Diesburg Florida State University "I've got so many kernels I can start making popcorn!"
