Subject: faq: ubi(fs): sending bug reports using `mtdinfo'
X-Git-Url: https://www.infradead.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=07d93fff291e88acfd370af3484e7f19dd167465;p=mtd-www.git

faq: ubi(fs): sending bug reports using `mtdinfo'

The `mtdinfo' utility (with the `-a' flag) is much more informative
than `cat /proc/mtd', so encourage users to use it if possible when
sending bug reports.
