Subject: Creating an ext3 partition on an mtd device
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2009 22:44:31 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <dac45060908261244wbfc744apec0d5195a0f1dbcf@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hello,
I want to create an ext2 partition on an mtd device.
The is the output of cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 00100000 00040000 "UBoot"
mtd1: 00400000 00040000 "UImage"
mtd2: 7fb00000 00040000 "Root"
mtd3: 00800000 00010000 "spi0.0"
I tried to create a partition with fdisk /dev/mtdblock2
The device is /dev/mtdblock2p1
but: mkfs.ext3 /dev/mtdblock2p1 fails
What should I do ? Is it right in this case to use fdisk at all ?
Regards,
Mark Ryden
