I'm new to linux
I want to ask you that I have come to known that I have to port linux file system image on my embedded system's memory.
I want to ask you that from where I can get that file system image and how I'll transfer this to my embedded system's memory ?
please note that I'm not using any ready made board instead I'm developing my own.
 

Hope you r using a processor. Each may already have a linux image, check the website related to the processor. Since you are having your own hardware you have to custmize the linux image based on differrent hardware components you are using.
check Qemu, this a emulator which uses linux images for different procesors. hope this helps
 

I'm using AT91SAM9263. Actually I don't want pre-built version of linux kernel instead I am asking about "file system image" e.g. JFFS2 or ex3. From where I can get these images and how can i mount them on my board?
 

you can create an image of basic file system which you want to load on your embedded system in linux by using command mke2fs for ext2 FS. different commands are available in linux to make different file system images. for more details check mke2fs mini-HowTo
