I would like to use my nor as a raw flash, but I would like ubi/ubifs on my nand. I have both a custom p1020 and p2020 board, and I have the p1020rdb and p2020rdb eval boards.
I tried to add ubifs support on 2011.06:

on my custom boards, I don't see these errors, because a lot of things are disabled (no mmc, no e1000 driver, and a few differences in memory layout, and larger nand (512M) and smaller flash (2M)). But when I try to boot the u-boot on my custom board that is able compile with the above patch, it doens't boot.
I removed all of the defines and started adding one define at a time, and the board stopped booting when I added CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS. I currently don't have the jtag (freescale cw usbtap) working yet, but I guess my questions are:
1) do I just need to disable some features I don't need for the p1020rdb/p2020rdb to get more room for ubifs to get it to build with 2011.06?
2) How can I figure out why adding CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS makes my custom board not boot. Is there some spot that I can insert a printf early to find out if it is even getting uboot from the text_base?
