Kernel OOPS - JFFS2 file system on NOR flash

[hari prasath]

Dear all,

I have a embedded device with 32MB NOR flash. I am mounting a part of this
as a MTD device.

Now i have a script which echo's a string to a file in the flash. At certain
stage, the 'echo' process becomes a Demon. 'dmesg' shows that 'Kernel unable
to handle page request is generated"

The output of 'dmesg' is given below for reference.

I am using linux kernel 2.6.22 and my NOR flash is a Intel P30 device.

argh. node added in wrong place
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffffffee
