Any ideas why this happens? Appearantly, it happens only if I format the DOC using M-Systems format. If I use the MTD format, it doesn't say this (I'm not entirely sure about this). I'm not using the flash under Windows or DOS, so I can't give you any information from there. I still have the kernel problem. I'm attaching the output of /proc/mtd, and the entire output of dmesg. It seems like nftl initializes, but still I can't reach it. --------- Dvir Oren Lucid VON Ltd.
