Re: ROMFS: bad initial checksum

Hi Larry,

maybe it sounds a bit confusing but from what I know this is usual to have a
romfs in RAM. Romfs does not necessarily mean that it is located in a ROM or
Flash Device. It is just a very compact filesystem.

strange to me that the first MTD partition is RAM, not ROM (flash?).

one of the MTD partitions, i.e., the one in RAM?
My Kernel command line looks like this: "Kernel command line:
rootfstype=romfs console=tty1 console=ttyS0,115200"

This is the same parameter like I used it with the old kernel.

Thanks for your reply.
