U-boot flash partitions
Posted by: Stephen ()
Date: March 12, 2010 12:10AM

Hello,

With the U-Boot bootloader that is preloaded on Snapper 9260 board, how do I list all partitions that are on flash? Is there a way to split the filesystem partition into multiple partitions from u-boot?

Thanks.

U-Boot doesn't know about the partitions on Snapper 9260, only raw addresses. If you want to have multiple partitions the easiest way is to modify the mtd_partition structure in board-snapper9260.c. Make sure you keep the first four the same (Preboot, Bootloader, Environment, Kernel), as U-Boot scripts are already set up for them, but the final one, "Filesystem" could be cut in half if you want.

Regards,
Andre

What is the best way to load my filesystem into the split "Filesystem" partition?
