I am running some network application on an embedded environment where there is no HDD, just a flash storage with jffs2 filesystem. Upon running the daemon, the JFFS2 garbage collection randomly crash (probably around every 5 minutes or so).
The linux kernel version is 2.6.21.5.
Does anyone have any idea what may have been the case?
