    Hello, all
    I have added jffs2 support and also mtd support to the kernel, and rebuilder kernel, but it seemed not any change when boot on target.
    (my platform is LH79520-10 with 8M Strataflash and 2.4.17-rmk2-lineo5)

    So I added to "linux/arch/arm/config.in" direct
    CONFIG_MTD=y
    CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS=y
    CONFIG_MTD_CHAR=y
    CONFIG_MTD_BLOCK=y
    CONFIG_MTD_CFI=y
    CONFIG_MTD_CFI_INTELEXT=y

    rebuild kernel and download
    On the target, "cat /proc/device" I can find devices
    90 mtd
    31 mtdblock
    but "cat /proc/mtd" I can not find any device, and there aren't mtd and mtdblock devices in "/dev"

    I'm still not sure which files under /maps is used for my flash?
    When "make menuconfig", there are three devices for flash:
    NORA, INTEGRATOR and XScale

    What's the problem?

    Thanks a lot!

    Hello Sail,

    This Linux port is not directly supported by Logic. I would suggest contacting Sharp for assistance since they are now the one's that maintain this code:

    If you need specific development assistance these questions could be handled under a support contract.

    Thanks,
