YAFFS2 in NAND on AM3517EVM

Hello,

I have compiled a small footprint version of Rowboat Android and want to have the entire system running from NAND.  I have burned u-boot and uImage successfully but am having issues creating the YAFFS or YAFFS2 filesystem and burning it to the NAND.  Does anyone have experience doing this and can provide some guidance for how I go about creating the image, and then burning it from the mmc?  Do I need to recompile the kernel first?

FYI:  The filesystem works fine when written as ext3 and run from the SDCard.  I am using the am3517evm.

Thanks,
Sean

    Just closing the loop on this issue.  Short story is I switched to one of "known good" SD cards from the wiki, and then had install flash_eraseall and busybox and follow the instructions on the v2.2 user guide.  Full explanation of the solution can be found on my post at the Rowboat forum.

     

    Thanks,
