¡Good work!

It would be great to get JFFS2 support. Maybe the tools for making the filesystem (mkfs.jffs2) are in the Angstrom repository, but I'm suspecting JFFS2 maybe isn't supported by the kernel...

I can almost guarantee that there's jffs2 support on the kernel, because I recall that Android uses it. So I just need the utility to format it.

Have you tried installing mtd-utils from the Angstrom repo? IIRC, mkfs.jffs2 is in that package.

I havent made it because I'm testing right now the Raspberry Pi =P

Wonder if the wifi and touch screen will work alright.

i tried the touch with no success, maybe I needed something. Wifi works

Is it any faster to boot linux off NAND rather than SD?

I dont really know, but the advantage is that you have a free SD slot

If you run the OS off ramdrive (initrd; of course this would have to be a compact system using busybox and such), you can also have a free SD slot, as soon as its done booting. NAND may still be faster, I'm a bit wary of testing that personally though (after I get another netbook as a backup though...) I'm lazy so what I've been doing if I need an extra slot is to use USB. Also I haven't written off Windows CE entirely yet so I keep it around on NAND to try things on (FWIW CE boots in 30 seconds, and I think linux could too with some work).

My wm8650 netbook comes with WINCE and shows 4gb NAND but I check with linux and dont find that amount on mtd??

[netomx]

Please send cat /proc/mtd and /proc/partition

[yuku9]

I have now Android in NAND and use Linux with SD and USB.
I want to get use of the 4gb and , If posible to boot form NAND without SD?

well, the 4GB NAND is really divided in several partitions, as you can see.

mtdblock10 is the "Local Disk", ~1.2gb free for you.

you can install it on nand, please use the 1st page instructions.

ok , but I dont understand the step of the SD card or the wmt.. file and the uzimage (kernel) .... Where I put that on the NAND mtd partition?? or ...

Gracias !

que parte no entiendes

[yuku9]

Lo que no entiendo bien es si se puede subir todo desde el NAND o se necesita la SD para subirlo junto con la NAND ? y si es sin la tarjeta como se hace?

Gracias!

ocupas la sd por que ahi viene la info que necesitas.

Everybody can make a software for SD card to boot and format /data partition into native FS?
I try to install linux(debian) to /data (format into ext2and copy files), but then it can't boot, and I cannot install stock firmware. Can it be becouse I have broken TS?

It's about TS? Yes, my tablet falls and it is broken, now I remove TS from it.
