Just to verify, do you get that message when you "cat /proc/mtd"? > However I CAN mount /dev/nftla1 without trouble.

The values, which appear after loading the doc*.o modules, describe characteristics of the recognized MTD devices. As to whether it is important, I am not really sure. If you want to diagnose it, "ls -l /proc/mtd" would be a good start. If the permissions look normal, i.e. readable by at least root, the next step would be to run "strace cat /proc/mtd" after loading strace.lrp which is floating around somewhere. --Brad ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Visual Studio.NET comprehensive development tool, built to increase your productivity.
