Sorry for misprint, that was YAFFS2. No, there's no support for YAFFS2 in 3.0 vanilla kernel, but it can be easily patched for that (but for 3.1 you'll have to fix cuople of simple compilation errors causes by VFS API and mtd driver changes). Is you CF and mtd-based device? I don't think YAFFS is capable to operate on top of generic block device. I don't think GRUB supports YAFFS. However, you can use separate storage (physical drive or partition) to load the kernel. What FS are you currently using? What's it's configuration in the kernel? Can you try same FS with other medium (USB-Stick for example). -- Best regards, Denis Kuzmenko. _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list [email protected] http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/busybox
