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'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
