Hi Wolfgang ,

>> Is there an advantage to use ext2 instead of cramfs for read only fs?

> Boot time, as you don't need to uncompress the stuff.

Could you pls elaborate the choice of ex2 in the above scenario, instead of romfs. Was it to take advantage of the features that ext2 provides ?
Romfs should have had a better bootup time than ext2/jffs2/cramfs.

Ummm... no. The "official" trees use BK, not CVS.

It's only us who still use stone-age tools like CVS.

Not from our (denx.de) CVS server.
