Hi all,
 
we are using yaffs on a product to manage a file system located on a NAND. We need to copy our linux system on the NAND during production.
 
The question we have is: do we need to use mkyaffs prior to mounting the NAND? or, a simple "mount -t ..." is enough to perform this copy. This is what we are doing today!
 
By the way, we also noticed a strange behavior on 1 product overs 600 pieces manufactured. After copying the file system and a hardware reboot we were unable to access the file system on the nand (mount failure) and were forced to use mkyaffs to access the NAND.
 
Thanks for your comment and help.
 
Regards,
 
Marc
