Errors writing to flash

[Muhammad Yahya]

Hi,

I am running a PPC 875 board with Linux 2.4.25 and an 8MB flash.
When I try to write to the flash an image, as

/tmp # wget -O -
http://129.148.183.102/~muhammad/flashupdate/spimage_nouboot |
dd of=/dev/mtdblock0 bs=1k seek=256
7936+0 records in
7936+0 records out
The write seems to go OK withiout any errors, but, on the console, we see
the following messages which I an not sure if they are coming from
jffs or the mtd driver.
Sometimes these messages are output right away after the write
completes and
Node totlen on flash (0xffffffff) != totlen in node ref (0x000000c0)
Node totlen on flash (0xffffffff) != totlen in node ref (0x00000064)
Node totlen on flash (0xffffffff) != totlen in node ref (0x00000044)
Any idea as to what this means and how to avoid this ?

Thanks!
Muhammad
