Hi
I am using MPC8313 board which is currently booting with JFFS2 root file 
system. 
I am using linux kernel version 2.6.23 from FreeScale's LTIB for MPC8313. 

As, I want it to boot with YAFFS2 root file system, I did compile kernel 
with yaffs2 support, craeted yaffs2 rootfile system and passed yaffs2 
partiton of nand in bootargs. However it didnot work.


If any one has done it successfully, can please share the steps to be 
followed ?
  
More detailed info maybe helpful for debugging this issue.

1. What nand flash is on-board? what's the size of the nand flash page 
size, 512/2048?
2. what's the version of mkyaffs2image you are using?
3. Can you mount an empty nand flash partition using yaffs2 type,
mount  /dev/mtdblock##x   xxx
4. It's better to attatch bootup message.

Tony
Thanks
Rupesh
