[poky] [PATCH 0/2] meta-yocto-bsp: enable the jffs2 for mpc8315e-rdb board

[Kevin Hao]

Hi,

This tries to enable the jffs2 support for the mpc8315e-rdb board. I have
tested the jffs2 with the following steps and it worked perfectly.

1. root at mpc8315e-rdb:~# cat /proc/mtd
dev:    size   erasesize  name
mtd0: 00800000 00010000 "fe000000.flash"
mtd1: 00100000 00004000 "u-boot"
mtd2: 00300000 00004000 "kernel"
mtd3: 01c00000 00004000 "fs"

2. root at mpc8315e-rdb:~# flash_eraseall  /dev/mtd3
flash_eraseall has been replaced by `flash_erase <mtddev> 0 0`; please use it

flash_erase: Skipping bad block at 01bf8000
flash_erase: Skipping bad block at 01bfc000

3. root at mpc8315e-rdb:~# flashcp core-image-minimal-mpc8315e-rdb.jffs2 /dev/mtd3

4. Then boot with a jffs2 rootfs

5. root at mpc8315e-rdb:~# cat /proc/cmdline
root=/dev/mtdblock3 rootfstype=jffs2 console=ttyS0,115200
