I disagree. There was a pretty clear error message above. Don't
ignore this, it will bite you later.

Assuming that this is a mount builtin to the busybox, this message
means that there is no such file as "/dev/mtdblock1" in your root
file system - exactly as the error message says.

What has a ramdisk to do with this?
What does "cat /proc/mtd" show? What are the kernel boot messages
look like?
