Hi,Matt
the netflash also needs enough memory space ,when I use './netflash -K -r /dev/mtd1 192.168.1.218 jffs2.bin' via tftpserver through ethernet , the netflash requestes virtual memory always to store the data and that it's very slow . like my case , the embedded device's memory is very limited . free memory is only 1M ,otherwise the size of jffs2.bin is 3M , it seems it's difficult to netflash too ,
what do you think ?
Thank you very much
Best Regards

Can netflash upgrade a mounted root partition?
If you don't have the memory to mount the tmp partition in ram, then keep a small second tmp partition in your flash, switch to that, run netflash, and then switch back to the new main parttion.

Hi, Advan
You can use netflash for upgrade your jffs2 partition.

hi, everyone
I build jffs2 as root file system in my embedded platform with uclinux os , I also build a web http server(boa) , through httpd server , I can upload a new jffs2 root file-system into the platform memery ,then I want to use new jfffs file to re-write jffs2 partition ,because linux is using this partition as its root file system , if I directly write it into the jffs2 partition ,then linux will cause crash and errors . anybody know how to do ?
thank you in advance
