Subject: Creating an Empty JFFS2 File System
Date: Fri, 07 Mar 2008 09:55:13 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <C3F6C181.DD74%gerickson@nuovations.com> (raw)
Is creating an empty JFFS2 file system supported or is this a deprecated
capability? The following steps seem to be incorrect or failing:
# flash_eraseall -q -j /dev/mtd9
# mount -t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock9 /mnt
Cowardly refusing to erase blocks on filesystem with no valid JFFS2
nodes
empty_blocks 0, bad_blocks 0, c->nr_blocks 3840
Or, is the only way to accomplish this to create a NULL JFFS2 image with
mkfs.jffs2 and then nandwrite it?
Regards,
Grant
