R/W Filesystem?

Hi Scott,

Thanks for your reply. I'm still confused as to how exactly to go about setting up a jffs2 partition in my flash. The instructions in the Microtronix Reference Guide assume an external flash card and IDE support. I have on-board flash and (currently) no IDE support in the kernel. I've included some (possibly) relevant information below. Any tips on how to get started?

Thanks in advance,

Ryan
