Subject: [U-Boot-Users] JFFS2+U-Boot writing an image that has been "SUMMARY"-patched?
Date: Wed, 06 Apr 2005 16:26:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <d30rer$mft$1@sea.gmane.org> (raw)

Hi there,

I'm considering patching my Linux kernel JFFS2 code with the "summary" 
patch:
http://www.inf.u-szeged.hu/jffs2/mount.php
decreasing mount time severely. In short, this patch requires modifying 
some data in the end of each eraseblock - also in the image that should 
be written.

However, I'm planning on using u-boot to write the Linux root-fs - using 
"nand write.jffs2" - and was wondering whether this function 
(write.jffs2) actually cared about what it was writing?

I tried writing "giberish" memory data using write.jffs2, and it didn't 
complain, though. But still, its name ".jffs2" indicate that some 
knowledge of jffs2 is used?

BR,
  Martin Egholm
