Title: Anyone created jffs2 on Suse 9.0
Post by: boosalis on June 07, 2004, 12:02:53 pm
On Suse 8.2 the following commands to mount  
the Sharps jffs2 filesystem  work, but they have stopped working on 9.0 (it fails in step 6 below:


1) insmod mtdcore      
2) insmod mtdram total_size=65536 erase_size=256
3) insmod jffs2
4) insmod mtdblock    

From /dev/mtdblock
5) mknod 0 b 31 0

When I try to copy the image over as below  it fails on Suse 9.0
6) dd if=initrd.bin of/dev/mtdblock/0

ERROR MESSAGE = /dev/mtdblock/0\': No such device (But this all works on Suze 8.2)

If I do ls on /dev/mtdblock 0 is there

Any ideas.

I got this recipe for mounting the jffs on the familiar web site, maybe there is another receipe for doing this ?

Thank you for any help
