Re: [Yaffs] yaffs support for 2GB SLC nand

Hi Wookey,
Thanks for your reply,
I have attached the proc output.
We have designed a board with omap3 processor,I am using 2.,6.27
kernel these 2 GB SLC NAND chips are from micron with 4K page size
and 256K block size, I have made some changes to cater this.Also I am
using 128 OOB patch which i got from net. I am using SW ECC.

I am able to detect the chip mount the device, My FS size is 900MB

I get these messages ,Could you tell me what this means..
