I'll generate a uc1 release so that people who cannot access anon CVS can get it. If you would like to track these changes subscribe to the uclinux-cvs mailing list. Same instructions as for the uclinux-dev mailing list I believe. > http://www.uclinux.org/~bkuhn/Platforms/Coldfire/tarifa/20020903/patch-linux-2.4.19-uc0-m5272c3-mtd+ppcboot This one changes the MAJOR device for the blkmem driver. I don't think to many people would like that ;-) If you are only using blkmem for the RAM based filesystem access you can remove the need for it completely without too much trouble. It's much cleaner to have MTD without blkmem :-) Have a look at the nettel-uc.c map driver for MTD. It provides the RAM based partition for the in memory filesystem and also the partitions needed read and write flash using MTD. Just include the driver for RAM devices I think. Ignore the erase config stuff in there ;-) Does that sound possible ? Otherwise it looks fine to go in :-) Cheers, Davidm -- David McCullough: Ph: +61 7 3435 2815 http://www.SnapGear.com davidm@snapgear.com Fx: +61 7 3891 3630 Custom Embedded Solutions + Security This message resent by the uclinux-dev@uclinux.org list server http://www.uClinux.org/
