Thanks for the reply. Actully I had read it before I ask this question.
According to the webpage, the kernel version I used should be ok.
I think the root cause is not the kernel version. Because I serach
the whole directory extracted from snapshop 20050302 but found
no implementation for jffs2_getlink function. Maybe I search the
wrong place?
