07:54.58jeri need to design an upgrade mechanism for my device. had one worked out before i moved away from the vivi loader in favour of uboot (several reasons, but suffice to say, not going back). in doing so, i also changed my root filesystem from yaffs2 to jffs2 (uses less flash). however, on the device, i can't flash_erase /dev/mtd3 ... ; nandwrite -p -s 0x560000 /dev/mtd3 my.rootfs.jffs2 ... i mean, i can, but rebooting gives the error can't find init.
07:55.53jerso what i'm wondering is if there's a cleaner way i can do this. i have twice as much flash as i need, so is there some way i can slice that up into two parts, write the new image to the unused portion (use it as staging), issue some kind of remote command to uboot, or modify something in the u-boot-env partition to perform some commands next time to loads?
