CONFIG_JFFS2_FS=mThis is wrong. You have to choose "y", not "m" (for module). This way jffs2 is compiled as a module. That means, that jffs2 filesystem will not be available until the module is loaded with "insmod jffs2" of something similar. That in turn means that your system has to start up first in order to be able to do this, but since you can't start because your root filesystem is on jffs2, you have created yourself a "chicken and egg" problem. If you choose "y" then jffs2 support will be compiled into the kernel, and thus be available before booting.
Hi, David, Yes, you are right. After changing it to 'y', the " VFS: Cannot open root..." message was gone. I'm so happy and thank you very much. Now it is another problem again. (something like: Oops: kernel access of bad area. sig:11...). I am going to check what happened.

Linux version 2.6.14.2 (happy@sddlinux1) (gcc version 3.3.3 (DENX ELDK 3.1.1 3.3.3-10)) #29 Sun Jan 1 22:34:28 CST 2006 Motorola SPS Sandpoint Test PlatformI see you are using DENX ELDK 3.1.1 and a kernel which AFAIK is not supported by this version of ELDK. Are you sure this is supposed to work? It probably will, but I don't know what the "Sandpoint" is (it looks like a PowerPC processor of the MPC7xx series to me), so I couldn't tell.
Do you know where to get the infomation about which kernel version it supports? thank you, /HappyPhot
