Hi list, sorry for being so nasty, but I really could need some hints here...
I have an MCF5373L with a 32MB flash (Intel P28F256P30T) running "uClinux-dist-20071107" (20070130 patched to 20071107). I have one large partition in flash that is planned to be used as JFFS2 file system but currently unused. If the JFFS2 is already present on this partition, startup is fine, but when there is no filesystem (like on the first startup), booting takes really long (around 6 seconds). In this case, even the first console messages (before MTD startup) do not show up before these 6 seconds have elapsed, so I do not know where this delay comes from (my console messages start with the serial port, no earlier messages). Can anbody give a hint what might cause this? I can live with the delay, but I have to do some watchdog service in between which I can only add if I know where this delay comes from... Thank you, Wolfgang Here's the console log until MTD detection (built-in map): Uncompressing Kernel Image ...
