Hi Bill, I had a look at the following patchs. http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.commits.head/303418 http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2011-May/035368.html http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.mtd/35293
I think the only way to define different partition layout is to pass it as command line argument to kernel. Refer this for mtdparts argument description. https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/tree/drivers/mtd/cmdlinepart.c?id=refs/tags/v3.8.7 I am thinking that the device file /dev/mtdx will be present since the char diver code is still existing in the kernel mainline.(line no 1254) https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/tree/drivers/mtd/mtdchar.c?id=refs/tags/v3.8.7 Regards, Yuva On Mon, Apr 15, 2013 at 3:19 PM, bill4carson <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, All > > It seems "MTD partitioning support" CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS has been deleted > some time ago, at least not exist on Linux-3.8.0-rc7+. > And there is no /dev/mtdx neither, so how do I make it happen? > > thanks in advance! > > > -- > 八百里秦川尘土飞扬,三千万老陕齐吼秦腔。 > > --bill > > _______________________________________________ > Kernelnewbies mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies >
