JFFS folder is readonly

[webgurru]

Hi All,

I am new to this world. Sorry if not doing things right

Router Model; Asus RT-N66U
Firmware Version:3.0.0.4.270.26 (Merlin build)
Enable JFFS partition Yes
Format JFFS partition at next boot Yes (I tried with No as well)

JFFS folder is readonly. I can't add scripts folder into this or change anything.

Please help what I am missing.

Best regards,
Webgurru

How are you trying to add files / folders to the partition?

Hi,

Well, it happens that JFFS is not avaliable on first reboot with 'Format JFFS partition at next boot = Yes'.

Just try it a 2nd time...

It it really does not work then a reset to factory settings and a re-flashing of the firmware might helt.

With kind regards
Joe

type ls -l in root dir, what is shown for JFFS:
Mine is as follows:
drwxr-xr-x 5 admin root 0 Mar 21 12:36 jffs
