Use the "block device emulating a mtd" and mount the image read only.<br>
<br>Tar it up and use mtd-tools to make a new rootfs.jffs2<br><br>Regards,<br><br>Faheem<br><br>P.S Please excuse the messiness of this email, typing (badly) from a N800 with low battery.<br><br><div><div><div></div><div>

<br>to mount a jffs2 file system using the "kernel memory emulating a MTD via mtdram" appraoch.<br>
<br>but as soon as I executed the dd command, I will be hit by the below error:<br>dd: writing to `/tmp/mtdblock0': No space left on device<br><br>My ubuntu's version is 7.10. the rootfs image I am trying to load is the rootfs.jffs2 extracted from the OS2008 2.2007.51-3 image, using the flasher tool.<br>
