Hi all, i am using NAND and NOR flashes along with RAM on my target board, which has ARM core. i want to make a survey as to which File system should i use to support my NAND, NOR flashes. i have seen some file systems like IntelFDI, HCC-embedded file systems, JFFS etc. can anyone help me to make a list on what criteria should i choose file system. for eg., one criteria can be the porting time, another could be the APIs supported etc. I want to make an extensive search on this. Hope i get some good inputs. thank you kaushik

jffs2 has been included with the linux kernel for ages, and is also available for eCos. I haven't used either, but I think yaffs is better for NAND flash and smaller ram, while jffs2 has compression and works best with NOR flash.
