JFFS2 has known bug in GC leading to -ENOSPC upon file removal. Time ago I've sent a patch with detailed explanations of what is going on. Probably your case is the same. Here is the patch http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2007-December/020091.html (though infradead mailing list archive is missing most of messages from this thread) And here are some details http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2007-June/018756.html Alexander -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
