- Subject: [ECOS] JFFS2, for Redboot only?
Looking through the ECOS code and looking through the archives?
It seems to use JFFS2 I must load up an initial JFFS2 via redboot?
If the flash is already clear can?t JFFS2 simply use it?
Most importantly. A quick test of JFFS2 and it seems that during write the
flash is never unlocked.
I did a grep for flash_unlock and it only showed up in fis_unlock. AFAIK,
that is a Redboot interface.
So?.
Does this mean JFFS2 expects an unlocked flash and the unlocking typically
comes from Redboot?
Am I missing something? A resource on the net?
