  25. RedBoot is a ROM monitor and bootloader which deals with multiple

  27. blocks on the device, similar to a partition table, which gives
  28. the offsets, lengths and names of all the images stored in the

  136. Although most flash chips have an erase size too large to be useful
  137. as block devices, it is possible to use MTD devices which are based
  138. on RAM chips in this manner. This block device is a user of MTD
  139. devices performing that function.

  141. System(s) to obtain a handle on the MTD device when it's mounted
  142. (although JFFS and JFFS2 don't actually use any of the functionality
  143. of the mtdblock device).
  144. Later, it may be extended to perform read/erase/modify/write cycles
  145. on flash chips to emulate a smaller block size. Needless to say,
