The uclinux driver is reporting a size of 0x18141000 or 403,968,000. I have a 
feeling that your romfs is not that large, and the size is off because it's 
reading the wrong data. I don't remember exactly, but I think the size may be 
the at the start of the romfs image.

The uclinux driver is expecting the romfs image to be at ebss. In my 2.4.x 
version, the kernel image has the romfs image appended directly to the end of 
the kernel data section, and the startup code (crt0_ram.S?) copies the romfs 
image to address ebss and zeros bss.

Hi,
yes CONFIG_ROMFS_FS is enabled.
I've tried to enabled CONFIG_MTD_BLOCK, and several things have been done:
************************************
...
uclinux[mtd]: RAM probe address=0x11414 size=0x18141000 Creating 1 MTD 
partitions on "RAM":
0x00000000-0x18141000 : "ROMfs"
mtd: Giving out device 0 to ROMfs
uclinux[mtd]: set ROMfs to be root filesystem mtdblock_open ok
mtdblock: read on "ROMfs" at 0x0, size 0x200
mtdblock: read on "ROMfs" at 0x200, size 0x200
**************************************

At this point the kernel creates a new thread and executes the function 
'mtd_blktrans_thread()'.
However, the system enters into an endless loop in this function. It seems not 
able to come back to the previous process.

Have someone got an idea concerning this problem?

Thanks in advance.
S.Lambert
