  51. ---help---
  52. RedBoot is a ROM monitor and bootloader which deals with multiple
  53. 'images' in flash devices by putting a table one of the erase
  54. blocks on the device, similar to a partition table, which gives
  55. the offsets, lengths and names of all the images stored in the
  56. flash.
  57. If you need code which can detect and parse this table, and register
  58. MTD 'partitions' corresponding to each image in the table, enable
  59. this option.
  60. You will still need the parsing functions to be called by the driver
  61. for your particular device. It won't happen automatically. The
  62. SA1100 map driver (CONFIG_MTD_SA1100) has an option for this, for

  96. different kinds of flash memory are available.
  97. You will still need the parsing functions to be called by the driver

  106. <size> := standard linux memsize OR "-" to denote all

  109. Due to the way Linux handles the command line, no spaces are
  110. allowed in the partition definition, including mtd id's and partition
  111. names.

  114. mtdparts=sa1100:-
  115. Same flash, but 2 named partitions, the first one being read-only:

  165. Although most flash chips have an erase size too large to be useful
  166. as block devices, it is possible to use MTD devices which are based
  167. on RAM chips in this manner. This block device is a user of MTD
  168. devices performing that function.
  169. At the moment, it is also required for the Journalling Flash File
  170. System(s) to obtain a handle on the MTD device when it's mounted
  171. (although JFFS and JFFS2 don't actually use any of the functionality
  172. of the mtdblock device).
  173. Later, it may be extended to perform read/erase/modify/write cycles
  174. on flash chips to emulate a smaller block size. Needless to say,
  175. this is very unsafe, but could be useful for file systems which are
  176. almost never written to.
