Juergen, Could you tell me (again?) how Barebox handles the BBT?
Barebox and BBT
When Barebox comes up, and a NAND memory is registered (and the BBT is enabled) it searches for a BBT in the NAND memory, and if it does not find one, it creates one. It is the same behaviour like in the Linux kernel if the BBT is enabled (it's a flag the platform developer can forward to the MTD-NAND framework). If you do not want a BBT, you must disable it in Barebox *and* the Linux kernel. Strange things can happen, if Barebox/U-Boot does not use the same setting as the Linux kernel for the BBT.
Thank you. Then, perhaps I have never created a BBT since I have been using Barebox . . . because it found a previous BBT. I will not mess around with it :) Cheers, Dave
