I am using uCdimm 68VZ328 with AM29DL323GB flash chip NOw I am on CYGWIN and am using Patrice KADIONIK guide HOW TO USE MTD/JFFS2 UNDER µClinux I don't know If my chip is 2 MB or 4MB and nothing else abt it. My questions are 1.) by following his guide ... I am making two partions.. as he does .... do I risk erasing the bootloader. Wha precautions can I take not to ersae the bootloader. Any ideas. 2.) Earlier one was a silly but important question, The makefile in mtd-utils compliles files with 2 compilers... Onewith m68k-elf-gcc and other with gcc. Now on my machine ( I guess due to bein gon CYGWIN) gcc build doesnot work for all files and I get linker errors. So I hv removed gcc build parts from the makefile. How does that affect the working of the tools, kernels etc. 3.) Mr David Woodhouse was kind enough to answer me saying that MTD CVS utils/makefile doenot contain any gcc build options. So Can someone send me this makefile... I tried using the CVS but couldnot ..... I am trying but still 4.) Can someone tell me from where can I read in detail about the significance of changes Mentioned in vendors/.../Makefile DEVICES = \ tty,c,5,0 console,c,5,1 cua0,c,5,64 cua1,c,5,65 \ mtd0,c,90,0 mtd1,c,90,2 mdt2,c,90,4 mtd3,c,90,6 \ mtd4,c,90,8 mtd5,c,90,10 mtd6,c,90,12 mtd7,c,90,14 \ mtdblock0,b,31,0 mtdblock1,b,31,1 mtdblock2,b,31,2 mtdblock3,b,31,3 \ In the guide..
