Be sure that the image you create on your i386 (PC) machine is built in Big Endian mode which the PowerPC uses. Also, the erase block size must match for things to work well. A typical command to create the JFFS2 image might be: # mkfs.jffs2 -b -e 0x40000 -o JFFS2.img -r JFFS2.root where "JFFS2.root" is the directory which contains the file system to be copied into the JFFS2 image "JFFS2.img". -- Gary Thomas <gary at mlbassoc.com> MLB Associates ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
