Am I using mkspiffs correctly ?
Not sure I'm doing right using mkspiffs...
Any help appreciated.
I'm trying to use mkspiffs (0.2.3) to create an image .bin file for Arduino ESP8266 Sketch Data to be uploaded on a WeMos D1 R1 Arduino Development board (4MB Flash) with selected FlashSize: 4M (FS: 1M OTA:~1019KB)
The /data folder only contains files of total size ~50kB and uploading this sketch data from the Arduino IDE works fine.
I built the spiffs.bin file with the following parameters:
mkspiffs -p 256 -b 8192 -s 0x0FB000 -c data/ spiffs.bin
Two things appear strange to me:
-
When I update the board using ESPhttpUpdate from this spiffs.bin file, it fails (with error "Not enough space")
-
If I try to list the content of the generated .bin file with mkspiffs -l spiffs.bin I get the following result: >mkspiffs -l spiffs.bin SPIFFS mount failed with error: -10025 error: failed to mount image
(Same result with mkspiffs -i spiffs.bin to visualize the image)
What am I doing wrong ?
Note: If I upload the Sketch Data folder from the Arduino IDE "ESP8266 Sketch Data Upload" I get the following output: [SPIFFS] data : C:\Users...\data [SPIFFS] size : 1000 [SPIFFS] page : 256 [SPIFFS] block : 8192 /ColorPicker.html /config.json /DisplayOptions.html /index.html /style.css /TimezoneSelection.html [SPIFFS] upload : C:\Users...spiffs.bin [SPIFFS] address : 0x300000 [SPIFFS] reset : --before default_reset --after hard_reset [SPIFFS] port : COM5 [SPIFFS] speed : 921600 [SPIFFS] python : C:\Users...\python3.exe [SPIFFS] uploader : C:\Users...\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\esp8266\hardware\esp8266\2.7.4\tools\upload.py

I think esp8266 using the same way as esp32, so try Block size 4096 bytes.
