Hi,
I have designed these ATA Flash cards in ARM based systems and had
some
problems. There is a lot of confusion about Flash File systems, Linear
Flash
and ATA Flash. Card vendors will imply that there is a Flash
File System in ATA cards. From my standpoint there is none. Power down
one of
these cards during a write and they get really screwed. We wrote some
low level
sector restore code to reset cards screwed turning test.
Can anyone else provide input on using Flash File systems on ARMs or
Linux
in general?
Thanks,
Bob Kondner
