I'm trying to add support for a ZyXEL NSA310 (kirkwood-based NAS), but the kernel does not find the rootfs in the ubi.
The image has kernel+rootfs(squashfs)+rootfs_data(ubifs?) in ubi, built with FILESYSTEMS := squashfs IMAGES += factory.bin IMAGE/factory.bin := append-ubi KERNEL_IN_UBI := 1 If I boot the initramfs (ramdisk) system image while there is a ubi image flashed to nand, it gives this error while booting [ 1.070706] UBI: auto-attach mtd2 [ 1.073868] ubi0: attaching mtd2 [ 1.083812] UBI: EOF marker found, PEBs from 28 will be erased [ 1.089971] ubi0: scanning is finished [ 1.093994] ubi0 error: ubi_read_volume_table: the layout volume was not found [ 1.101458] ubi0 error: ubi_attach_mtd_dev: failed to attach mtd2, error -22 [ 1.108559] UBI error: cannot attach mtd2 but since ubi isn't necessary for the initramfs image, it works fine and I get to system console. If I flash the image to nand (and set uboot for booting from ubi, with NO bootargs passed to the kernel), the kernel boots until it finds the same error above, and then it posts this [ 1.605331] VFS: Cannot open root device "(null)" or unknown-block(0,0): error -6 [ 1.612865] Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available partitions: [ 1.621268] 1f00 1024 mtdblock0 (driver?)

[ 1.636521] Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) And of course auto-reboots. I've tried with bootargs like ubi.mtd=2 but with any bootarg about root= or ubi it simply hangs and does not even start the kernel (shortly after uboot hands over to the kernel the device resets). the ubi partition seems to be OK according to uboot.
