Hi there


Has anybody managed to get a root FS with JFFS2 to work?

I followed the mtd howto and I have a root partition(with the necessary
files) and
all I get is: "Kernel panic: I have no root and I want to scream"
message.

first I tried to use "rdev zvmlinux /dev/mtdblock1", but
the kernel ignored that an did a NFS mount as usual. I then
specified on the kernel commad line: root=/dev/mtdblock1
and the I got the kernel panic above.

Any Ideas?
