dm644x - I experiment a significative delay during boot from flash

2008-12-23 Thread Gabriele Filosofi
During the boot process with Flash resident kernel and filesytem I experiment a significative delay among the following log lines bootserver=192.168.0.243, rootserver=192.168.0.243, rootpath= and VFS: Mounted root (jffs2 filesystem). The same doesn't occur using NFS. Any suggestions?

Jon Povey spiffera, alle martedì 23 dicembre 2008 circa: Is this the time taken to scan the filesystem and mount it? I think you get a noticable delay here with YAFFS2 filesystem as well, the bigger the filesystem and more files in it, the longer the delay. Confirmed. The same happen to me.
