The kernel seems to book OK, but ends with a kernel panic "unable to
mount root fs". I see that "sda: unknown partition table" and "No
filesystem could mount root, tried ext2 cramfs" in the kernel log.
Hi!
AFAIK in a real case the jffs2 is not placed on the whole disk but into
a partition. E.g. my PDA has an internal flash with bootloader, root
partition (which IS JFFS2) and some free space for another partition.
Is qemu expected to be able to read jffs2 images, and if not where
could I find qemuarm ext2 images?
qemu is not supposed to deal with filesystems, just block devices. You
should supply it with a disk image, not a partition image.
