Hello,

could anybody explanin me, how I could read/write my NAND Flash if Linux is running ?

Is there a generic driver avilable or still included ?

Maybo someone could add some SourceCode...

Thanks

Manuel

If you want to write to straight to the Flash, you can use the character devices /dev/mtd?. You can just use dd or roll your own program. When using dd you need to specify a blocksize equal to the erase block size, and use the conv=sync option.

Example (for dataflash, NAND is similar):


If you don't need to write to a specific location (i.e. you are not writing something like a firmware image), use jffs2 instead.

Beware of the bad blocks :
