Thanks Mark - That's what I needed. It threw me that there are so many ndbx's but most aren't used.

However, I'm getting very frustrated with this root setup. I have tried installing various packages
with almost no luck. I'm in the linux equivalent of dll hell.
So I figured I'd just make things easier for transferring files by getting ftp going.
Today is not my day. I can't even get ftp to work. As far as I can tell I have it set up almost exactly
like on the ts7390 which I have running right beside this for comparison purposes.

Leaton,

They will show up as nbd devices served up from nandctl.  You may want to see the wiki page on nandctl:
http://oz.embeddedarm.com/~mark/index.php/Nandctl

nbd0 is the block device, nbd1 is the first partition, nbd2 is the second, and so on.  I'll make sure this is cleared up in the TS-4800 wiki.

Best Regards,

I'm migrating to the newer platform, moving a bunch of
code over. I currently have scripts that run on the TS7390
that move code from an SD card where I do development natively
to the on board NAND.
I've been trying to recreate an elaborate environment that I've
developed for working in the SD card, then copying the resultant
executables to NAND. Then the product is shipped without the SD
and boots all my stuff that I moved on board.
Anyway, I boot from SD then rely on the ability to mount the NAND
device in order to do the copying.

OK - the issue and the question.

I boot the 8390/4300 from microSD, but I cannot find the /dev entries
for the on board NAND in order to mount it.
I've dug around in initrd looking for TS's scripts for "save" and
etc. and even though it appears from the 'tshelp' to have similar
stuff for copying, I cannot find the 'save' script or any of the other
NAND copy scripts that are implied to be present when you type 'tshelp'

Thanks
Larry
