Hi Alex:
First of all, thank you for your answer. You wrote:
Did you initialise the FS with
cat jffs2.image > /dev/mtd0
before you tried to mount /mtdblock0 ?
I tried it in two ways, and in both of them
I got the same result:
1.- By flashing "jffs2.image" directly to
its location address.
2.- cp jffs2.image /dev/mtd0
and then mounting it into the system.
Did you use an empty directory with mkfs.jffs2
to make your jffs2.image? This doesn't work
- you end up with a 0 length jffs2.image!
No, the directory is not empty.
Thank you

Did you remember to erase the flash first with:
erase /dev/mtd0
Then "xxd /dev/mtd0" should show all FF's. You can't write
successfully unless it is erased first. Forgive me if I am stating the
obvious :)
