I am currently loading the romfs image from flash @ 0x180000 into ram at
0x1001c26c (_ebss) using the cp.b uboot command and then executing the
kernel with go 0x80000.
uclinux.c seems to be working however I get

Booting to this point suggests that your are past mounting
the ROMfs.
Do you have a valid "/sbin/init", "/etc/init", "/bin/init" or
"/bin/sh" in your ROMfs for the kernel to run?
if I dont copy ROMFS from flash to ram before executing the kernel
VFS fails to mount a file system, so the kernel must be seeing something
has anyone get any ideas ? the full kernel output follows

Greg thanks for the reply
I have now created my own MTD mapper file
/driver/mtd/maps/actel_m7.c and added some lines to
/driver/mtd/maps/Kconfig & Makefile so I can select the new mapper
file however when I try to compile the kernel with the following
JFFS2 option set
Flash systems -> Miscellaneous file system -> JFFS2 support
I get the following compiler error

without the JFFS2 options enabled the kernel compiles ok!
I am using the following sources / tools
Linux version 2.6.11.8-hsc0
ARM-ELF toolchain 20040427
uClinux-dist-20040408
Have you seen or has anyone seen this problem before? would be
greatful for any ideas as without the jffs2 kernel support I cant
mount the rootfs so I am a bit stuck ;-(

A ROMfs filesystem at a fixed address in flash is not a
"ramdisk", as suggested by the initrd= option. You need a
fixed physical mtd mapping to use that as you root fs.
A modern uclinux.c MTD map driver can do this, mapping a
ROMfs from a fixed flash address. I don't recall of hand
if the uclinux.c driver in 2.6.11 had this support. Look
for the config option MTD_UCLINUX_ADDRESS.
Using the normal uclinux.c from uClinux-dist then you
would not need any boot args at all, or if using the
standard main line kernel one then you might need
root=/dev/mtd0.
