ok, i found that there is somthing call blkmtd, which enables accessing a blk device as if it was MTD. and my router, (kernel 2.4.30) already had it (just needed to make config and modules). my router does not have CBD (conpressed block device).
however, mounting a slow 64MB blk device using jffs2 takes 5 minutes (mounting a 1GB partition with ext3 from same device takes about 1 second). 10x erez. On 10/31/06, Shachar Shemesh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
