The module adds three new commands. fsload - load binary file from a file system image fsinfo - print information about file systems ls - list files in a directory +chpart - change active partition If you boot from a partition which is mounted writable, and you update your boot environment by replacing single files on that -partition, you should also define CFG_JFFS2_SORT_FRAGMENTS. Scanning +partition, you should also define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_SORT_FRAGMENTS. Scanning the JFFS2 filesystem takes *much* longer with this feature, though. Sorting is done while inserting into the fragment list, which is more or less a bubble sort. That algorithm is known to be O(n^2), thus you should really consider if you can avoid it! -There is two ways for JFFS2 to find the disk.
