mounting root file system problem for nand flash : Waiting for root device /dev/mmcblk0p3...

PramodKumar · ‎05-07-2015

hello...

We are able to boot kernel in nand in imx233 but it was unable to call root file system path and get the message Waiting for root device /dev/mmcblk0p3...

The step follow to port kernel image and rfs in nand flash was:

flash_eraseall /dev/mtd0

flash_eraseall /dev/mtd1

mkdir -p /mnt/sd1; mount /dev/mmcblk0p3 /mnt/sd1 // in docs its given to mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 but its unable to mount so we mount // /dev/mmcblk0p3

cd /mnt/sd1/

kobs-ng init imx23_linux.sb

ubiattach /dev/ubi_ctrl -m 1 -d 0

ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -n 0 -N rootfs0 -s 256MiB

ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -n 2 -N data -s 256MiB

mkdir -p /mnt/ubi0; mount -t ubifs ubi0_0 /mnt/ubi0

tar -C /mnt/ubi0 –jxvf rootfs.tar.bz2

umount /mnt/ubi0

our board output is :

Please check in the kernel command line is configured correctly for NAND,

as stated in section 5.1.1 (Setting kernel command line) of “i.MX23_Linux_BSP_UserGuide.pdf”.

Root file system located on a NAND flash (UBI volume):

ubi.mtd=1 root=ubi0:rootfs rootfstype=ubifs

Have a great day,
Yuri
