    slides/sysdev-flash-filesystems: re-add some details on UBI Linux tools
    
    We at least need to mention ubiattach, otherwise it doesn't make
    sense: you can't mount a UBIFS filesystem without doing a
    ubiattach. It also helps to explain the ubi.mtd= kernel argument
    explained in the next slide.

   \frametitle{Linux: UBI / UBIFS target tools}
   \begin{itemize}
   \item Target tools exist for creating UBI spaces and manipulating volumes:\\
-         see \url{http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/doc/ubi.html\#L_usptools}
-  \item No specific tools are required to create a new UBIFS filesystem.
-	An empty filesystem is created the first time it is mounted.
-        The same applies to JFFS2.
-  \item Mounting a UBIFS filesystem is done with \code{mount}:\\
+    see \url{http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/doc/ubi.html\#L_usptools}
+  \item Attaching a MTD partition to UBI:\\
+    \code{ubiattach -m <MTD-device-id> /dev/ubi_ctrl}
+  \item Commands to manipulate volumes:\\ \code{ubimkvol},
+    \code{ubirmvol}, \code{ubiupdatevol}, \code{ubirsvol},
+    \code{ubirename}
+  \item Mounting a UBIFS filesystem:\\
     \code{mount -t ubifs <ubi-device-id>:<volume-name> <mount-point>}
   \item Example:\\
     \code{mount -t ubifs ubi0:data /data}
