Subject: [Yaffs] mkyafss or simple mount
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
