Hi,

I have read that INTEL has strataflash.

Is it bare NAND/nor file system?what is its basic use in Linksys?

What file system does it use? Can we have JFFS2 for that ?

What is difference in CF flash/DOC flash and this INTEL flash .?

Thanxs!

Yes. Read their website on flash chips.

It's a type of NOR flash chip. We have no idea what it's usage is in Linksys. Especially given that Linksys is a company, so it could be used for a variety of things.

Strataflash can be used with several filesystems, including JFFS2, assuming there is an underlying device driver in MTD that can talk to it.

CF flash doesn't show up as real flash. It shows up as an IDE device. Intel flash is a raw flash chip and it's up to a board designer to determine how it is addressed.

I see you use some progressive formula for number of line brakes at the end of each line. But I cannot figure out which one.

If number of brakes is y, while the number of line is x, we have the following data for y(x):

y(0) = 2
y(1) = 2
y(2) = 4
y(3) = 4
y(5) = 6
y(6) = 5

What's the formula?
