You must learn to be more precise. Please pay attention to all details, may they be little or not.
1. created jffs file system using mkfs.jffs2 (mkfs.jffs2 -e 0x20000 -b -r /root/Prakash/RAMD/temp/ -o ram.img.
This is wrong. This does not create a JFFS filesystem.
It creates a JFFS2 filesystem, which is something different.
Also, the name "ram.img" is misleading at best.
2. made the ram.img as ram.uimg using mkimage -T ramdisk -C gzip-a 0x00440000 option.
What should that be good for? There is no use in adding a mkimage wrapper around a filesystem image.
Now i m passing the following as my command line args.=root=/dev/mtdblock1 mem=16M rootfstype=jffs console=ttyS0,115200 init=/bin/sh
This is wrong again. Since you created a JFFS2 image, your filesystem type is NOT jffs. It is jffs2.
I m struggling with this problem last 5 days.
Why don't you try working on ONE configurtation only, and get this running? Fighting a war on two or more fronts is not that easy.
