I am not able to compile it for jffs2, but its getting compiled for jffs, using the following command: In the Makefile I have chnaged the linux directory as per my target sourec directory for IBM Power PC 405. make jffs After that I have complied the "util" using "make" command. I am getting confused , to get the final image. I am using the following command, can you pl tell em whether I am doing it right or wrong: ==================================================================== [root at Rakesh mtd]# ./mkfs.jffs -d /home/test/mtd/fs/jffs -o /tmp/jffs.image ==================================================================== and ==================================================================== [root at Rakesh mtd]# ./mkfs.jffs2 -d /home/test/mtd/fs/jffs -o /tmp/jffs.image1 ==================================================================== With the first option I am getting the jffs.image of 1705432Kb and with the second option , when I use mkfs.jffs2, I am getting the jffs.image1 of size 657876KB Can anyone suggest me whether I am doing it right or not. And can I use anyone of the command like mkfs.jffs or mkfs.jffs2.
