Hello Heiko,

UBI error: vtbl_check: reserved_pebs 81, ubi->good_peb_count 80 UBI error: vtbl_check: too large reserved_pebs, good PEBs 80

Use of UBI is new to me so where are the PEBs configured?

Good question ... looking into vtbl_check(), the "reserved_pebs" value is read from the record in the volume table:

              reserved_pebs = be32_to_cpu(vtbl[i].reserved_pebs);

"@reserved_pebs: how many physical eraseblocks are reserved for this volume"

I have changed the size of the partition as defined in U-Boot and also reduced the maximum image size when creating the UBI image and have found a combination that moves me on to the next error:

U-Boot> ubi part rootfs UBI: attaching mtd2 to ubi0 UBI: physical eraseblock size: 131072 bytes (128 KiB) UBI: logical eraseblock size: 130944 bytes UBI: smallest flash I/O unit: 1 UBI: VID header offset: 64 (aligned 64) UBI: data offset: 128

What says flinfo ? It seems you have protected sectors on your nor flash ... you must unprotect them before using it ...

UBI error: erase_worker: failed to erase PEB 0, error -5 UBI error: erase_worker: bad physical eraseblock 0 detected UBI warning: ubi_ro_mode: switch to read-only mode UBI error: do_work: work failed with error code -5 UBI error: autoresize: cannot auto-resize volume 0 UBI error: ubi_init: cannot attach mtd2 UBI error: ubi_init: UBI error: cannot initialize UBI, error -30 UBI init error 30

Hopefully this may be the last hurdle to overcome but somehow I think maybe not!

Cheer up!
