Quick node about this useful project I packaged two days ago. It has a long FAQ - I was interested in how can one access the builtin nand storage on an arm board using it.
First, check your dmesg, you should see something like:
Creating 3 MTD partitions on "orion_nand":
0x000000000000-0x000000100000 : "u-boot"
0x000000100000-0x000000500000 : "uImage"
0x000000500000-0x000020000000 : "root"As the names say, the three items here are the bootloader, the kernel and the root filesystem. To access and mount the last one, you need:
ubiattach /dev/ubi_ctrl -m 2
mount /dev/ubi0_0 root
... hack hack hack ...
umount root
ubidetach /dev/ubi_ctrl -m 2
