Hi,

I'm using beagleboard c4 and built android from rowboat site. I want to use an SDIO device. For this i should replace MMC card with my SDIO device, but MMC has file system on it.
Can anyone suggest me how to flash filesystem to NAND, so that i can use my SDIO device instead of MMC file system.

How to flash file system(rootfs.tar.gz) to NAND?

Thanks

    I am not sure whether I understood your question clearly, do you want to flash the filesystem on NAND and mount it directly from NAND as a root file system??

    If yes, then you can not directly use ext2/3/4 filesystem on NAND flash, you have to have special filesystem for NAND flash like, JFFS2, YFFS2, UBIFS, etc...

    For more information on this, just google should serve you...

     

    Thanks,

    Vaibhav ,

    Thanks for the response. I created a JFFS2 file system. Can you tell me what is the address of the NAND where i should flash jffs2 file system on beagle board C4.

    My uImage load address is 0x82000000.

    Thanks
