Problems mounting a JFFS2 file system

[Kjell Uddeborg]

Hi,

I'm having some problems mounting a JFFS2 file system. I'm using uClinux =
kernel 2.4 on a Motorola M5249C3 board.

I think that I have all MTD stuff configured correctly and I can erase =
the device /dev/mtd1 with no problem, see screen dump:

-----------------------------
/> eraseall /dev/mtd1
MTD_open
MTD_ioctl

  0 -- 100% complete.      =20
-----------------------------

As you can see I have all the debug outputs turned on. Looks to me that =
the command completed successfully.

The problem occurs when I try to mount the JFFS2 file system, see screen =
dump:

-----------------------------
/> mount -t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock1 /mnt/jffs2
arena open of 1 failed!
mount: Mounting /dev/mtdblock1 on /mnt/jffs2 failed: No such device=20
pid 28: failed 256
-----------------------------

The /dev/mtdblock1 is exists, see this partial listing on /dev:

-----------------------------
/> ls -l /dev
