[microblaze-uclinux] NuHo S3/1500 - FLASH detected; how do I mount?

["David Banas" <dbanas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

OK, I've got the FLASH detected and partitions created at kernel boot time,
as per:

-------- kernel boot log excerpt begins here. -----------
<5>MBVanilla flash probe(0xff800000,8388608,2): 800000 at ff800000
<4>Entering mtd_do_chip_probe
<4>Returning from genprobe_ident_chips not null
<4>genprobe_ident_chips returned non null
<4>Entering check_cmd_set
<5> Amd/Fujitsu Extended Query Table v1.0 at 0x0040
<4>reading id at :2
<4>bootloc=2
<5>number of CFI chips: 1
<5>cfi_cmdset_0002: Disabling fast programming due to code brokenness.
<4>mtd_do_chip_probe returning non null mtd
<5>Creating 8 MTD partitions on "Flash":
<5>0x00000000-0x00020000 : "Bootloader"
<5>0x00020000-0x00040000 : "Bootargs"
<5>0x00040000-0x00060000 : "MAC"
<5>0x00080000-0x00100000 : "Config"
<5>0x00060000-0x00080000 : "Spare"
<5>0x00100000-0x00300000 : "Image"
<5>0x00300000-0x00800000 : "JFFS2"
<4>mtd: partition "JFFS2" extends beyond the end of device "Flash" -- size
trunc
<5>0x00000000-0x00400000 : "Flash"
-------- kernel boot log excerpt ends here. -----------

although later in the boot sequence, I see:

-------- kernel boot log excerpt begins here. -----------
Populating /etc/config:
flatfsd: invalid header magic
flatfsd: Nonexistent or bad flatfs (-183), creating new one...
( >2 min. wait here; kernel appears to have hung, but hasn't.)
flatfsd: Wrote 288 bytes to flash in 143 seconds
flatfsd: Created 4 configuration files (183 bytes)
-------- kernel boot log excerpt ends here. -----------

Now, my question is, how do I mount the FLASH device as a file system?
Here's what I get when I try 'mount' a couple of different ways:

-------- shell session excerpt begins here. -----------
# mount /dev/mtdblock0 /mnt
VFS: Can't find ext2 file system on dev mtdblock(31,0).
VFS: Can't find a romfs file system on dev 1f:00.
mount: Mounting /dev/mtdblock0 on /mnt failed: Invalid argument
# mount -t flat /dev/mtdblock0 /mnt
mount: Mounting /dev/mtdblock0 on /mnt failed: No such device
-------- shell session excerpt ends here. -----------
