What is the link error?

 Thank you for your reply and sorry for my late answer.
The link error was removed by selecting "MTD Partitioning support" in
xconfig, but now a new problem has arisen. 
The size of flash memory is 16 MB and I want to dedicate just 4 MB of it to
SnapGear. The physical address of Flash memory starts at 0x50000000. 

In "Mapping drivers for chip access", item "CFI Flash device in physical
memory map" is selected with the following values:

Physical start address of flash mapping: 0x50800000
Physical length of flash mapping: 0x400000
Bank width in octets: 2

Although these changes are reflected in
/snapgear/linux-2.6.x/include/linux/autoconf.h , when Snapgear gets started,
the result of "cat /proc/mtd" is:
Dev:   size         erasesize  name
Mtd0: 01000000  00020000  "phys_mapped_flash

While it should be something like this:
Dev:   size         erasesize  name
Mtd0: 00400000  00020000  "phys_mapped_flash.0

And my attempt to mount mtdblock0 leads to a Segmentation Fault!

Regards,
A.Zaerpoor
