Message-ID: List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: u-boot@lists.denx.de Hi there, I have tried to create a jffs2-image of the linux-filesystem I wish to use, and then write it to my flash using "nand write.jffs2 100000 0 $(filesize)". But with no luck... Then I began to investigate the fundamental "ls" and "nand erase" commands, but neither there did I have any success. Below is a trace of what I've tried in order to get something working. In section 2, I'd expect the nand to be mountable from Linux - but's it's not. In section 3, I'd expect the filesystem to be ls'ed correct from u-boot - but it's not... Can someone tell me if there is something I've misunderstood? ******************************** ********** 1 U-Boot ************ ******************************** U-Boot 1.1.2 (Nov 27 2004 - 11:50:10) CPU: IBM PowerPC 405EP Rev.
