Using jffs2 with usb stick

[zerg]

Hello,
I'm using WL500gp-1.9.2.7-d-r1000 firmware.
using the modules-1.9.2.7-d-r1000.tgz I managed to enable jffs2

cd /opt
tar -xf modules-1.9.2.7-d-r1000.tgz -z

and in /opt/lib I have /modules/2.4.20/ subfolder
After this with modprobe I enabled jffs2 (crc32 is required)
now "cat /proc/filesystems" shows jffs2

nodev   rootfs
nodev   bdev
nodev   proc
nodev   sockfs
nodev   tmpfs
nodev   shm
nodev   pipefs
nodev   eventpollfs
        ext3
nodev   ramfs
        msdos
        vfat
nodev   devfs
        ntfs
        squashfs
nodev   usbdevfs
nodev   usbfs
        jffs2

I don't know now how to format the usb stick (2gb).
I was not able to find any pakage from oleg repository, which brings jffs2 formattiong utility - mkfs.jffs2. I can not find also "mtd tools" package.


Can you please help me! How to format the USB stich and start using it ?

Thanks in advance !

you can format it in a linux distribution on your pc with gnome partition manager, or you can download the gparted live cd: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php

probably the easiest way
