Hello Thomas,

    Sure.

    Please provide the name and location of the MTD snap shot so I use 
the correct one.  The  mtd snapshot that I used originally was 
mtd-snapshot-20030305.tar.gz.  I had numerous problems with this snap 
shot and 2.4.19. Unfortunately, there was a lot of "pilot" error when I 
started this upgrade effort. Let me know and I will proceed carefully 
and capture the results.

    The  performance of approximately 4 minutes to copy a 1 meg file was 
with an almost "pristine" 2.4.19 rmk4 kernel. Does this meet 
expectations for that iteration of jffs2?
