I'm confused. I thought yaffs2mem is a NODEV file system, like proc, and
didn't need a device.  It certainly registers itself as one.

I understand that yaffs2 would need 'yaffs2' replaced by the dev name of
the mtd block device that the mount was for, but shouldn't 'yaffs2' just
be a placeholder for yaffs2mem?

Martin,

you need something like /dev/mtdN or /dev/mtd/N for device. yaffs2 is
not a valid device name. Make sure you have properly created this device
before you use it.
N=3D0,1,2..
