Hi All,
             Please help me how to flash the ubi image from barebox.
I generated the ubifs image using the mkfs.jffs2, then I created the ubi
image using the ubinize. I am trying to flash this ubi image on NAND.

I tried in two ways
1) I flashed the UBI image directly on /dev/nand0.rootfs.bb(erased the
partition before flash).
In this method I am getting the errors like below

[   30.080000] UBI error: ubi_thread: ubi_bgt0d: work failed with error
code -5

2) I executed the below commands from barebox
#erase /dev/nand0.rootfs.bb
#ubiattach /dev/nand0.rootfs
 After this command it created the /dev/ubi0
#ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 rootfs 0
   After this command it created the /dev/ubi0.rootfs
After these commands I copied the ubifs image on to the /dev/ubi0.rootfs.
 #tftp root.ubifs /dev/ubi0.rootfs
Now I booted the kernel, in this method, I am getting the error like the
volume layout not found.

Please tell me which method is correct. If the above two methods are not
correct, please suggest me the correct method.

Thanks

VID headers are empty they are not updated, only the volume table 1 and 2
VID headers are updated and in which LEB the data is written those VID
headers are updated. Rest of the PEB VID headers are empty. Volume rb tree
is empty. Because of this I am getting the error "the layout volume was not
found".

I assume the above is a typo, right? mkfs.jffs2 won't create ubifs
images.

This should generally work.

This should also work.

Do the parameters to mkfs.ubifs/ubinize match your hardware? Some
parameters are not really obvious.

Also, what hardware are you on?
