If there is stuff in there you can just # delete it by hand, and then proceed with the create stage. # # Notes: jffs/jffs2, cramfs, and romfs filesystems always have the /initrd and # /dev directories added since these directories need to exist in order for # the MTD Emulator to work. Genext2fs will have devices added if # /tmp/gboot_non_root_`ud -u`/device_table.txt exists, and many filesystem # creators automatically add the lost+found directory. # # jffs/jffs2, cramfs and romfs have their respective fs type appended to # the image name you choose: root_fs turns into root_fs_jffs2
