Trying to use default images provided with [FriendlyARM mini210s](http://www.friendlyarm.net/products/mini210s) SBC.

Installing yaffs2-image failed [This FRIENDLYARM FORUM post](http://www.friendlyarm.net/forum/topic/5161) suggests that the image is a MLC2 NAND image whereas the NAND is SLC. I have tried rebuilding the image using the `rootfs` TAR but I am getting the same issue. Any pointers are most welcome.
Mini210s images => Installing yaffs2-image failed
- Get `rootfs_qtopia_qt4-20121108.tar.gz` from the friendlyARM DVD - Compiled [yaffs2utils](https://code.google.com/p/yaffs2utils/) on my dev environment. ### Rebuilt the image sudo tar xvf rootfs_qtopia_qt4-20121108.tar.gz sudo mkyaffs2 rootfs_qtopia_qt4 rootfs_qtopia_qt4.img and copied to my microSD card and adjusted my `FriendlyARM.ini` to take this file instead of the MLC2 NAND flash version.
