Eep. Child "msg.h"....................... i am using linux kernel 2.6.12 with mtd support and relevant modules compiled in kernel and BLKMTD as a loadable Kernel module while insmod i am also specifying erase size as 64.... i had tried diff permutations of erasesize with insmod and the eraseblock of mkfs.jffs2 command but the system hangs for CF and works fine in case of harddisk i think many of you all must have gone through this one, i tried to get around but i am in vain. someone help!! -- Nikhil Shirodkar Project Engineer NISG, CDAC
