Hello,

Leinux doesn´t show me the SPI DataFlash in the /dev/ folder ?

What Kernel Options do I have to set, to make the Dataflash be shown in the /dev/ directory ?

Especially the MTD Options...

(I use Kernel 2.6.24.3)

Thank you very much...

HI there

The mechanism for accessing DataFlash is through MTD partitions.

I've manually created the device nodes for MTD partitions. Then I've added this to the init script. Don't know if there is an "automatic" method.

WHow could I manually create the partitions ?

I need mtd6, mtd6ro and mtdblock6 for the first partition, the same with index 7 for the second partition.

Should I have to use mknod ?

But which paramters ?

Thanks

Hi there

This might work:

mknod -m 660 /dev/mtd6 c 90 12
mknod -m 440 /dev/mtd6ro c 90 12
mknod -m 660 /dev/mtdblock6 b 31 6
mknod -m 660 /dev/mtd7 c 90 14
mknod -m 440 /dev/mtd7ro c 90 14
mknod -m 660 /dev/mtdblock7 b 31 7
