USB mass storage device on blackfin?

Hi all,

I wonder if anybody implemented a USB mass storage device functionality 
on a ADI blackfin architecture. The blackfin would be connected to a 
flash via the asynch memory interface, and have some USB hardware, say, 
a MAX3420.

I guess the critical part is to manage the flash wear. Is there any free 
implementation or App-note around?

Best regards,

Andre

Isn't it included in ucLinux?

The USB host stack is a very fat and boring piece of code. If the low 
transfer rate is not an issue, you can use VC1L host from FTDI. It takes 
care of all mass storage USB functionality.
