Mounting Problem on MTD NAND (Samsung) device on 2.6.11

[Vincent Lim]

Hi Gurus:

I experienced problem mounting the MTD NAND (Samsung
K9f1208UOA) device on 2.6.11 kernel. 
These are the steps that I made using the utility
built-in:

 mkfs.jffs2 -d ~/PM/ -e 0x4000 -p 0x4000 -o 
 NANDjffs2.image
 eraseall /dev/mtd3 
 nandwrite /dev/mtd3 NANDjffs2.image
 mount -t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock3 /mnt/mtd3
 dir /mnt/mtd3/ 

I have error messages as below while executing the
commands. See below.
I have no clue yet what I need to do, can someone show
me the pointers where I should narrow down the problem
?
Is it because of an error during the creation of the
JFFS2 filesystem while mounting ?
I hope it is just a bad part. :-)
 

BR,

V.
