Hi,
They must be the same. Since there is no shared source between bootldr
and the mtd drivers, it is up to you keep the same layout in both sides.
Otherwise, kernel boot or filesystem mounts would fail.
Each /dev/mtdblock[0-7] is defined under the specific "driver" or table
under drivers/mtd. For assabet, it is sa1100-flash.c. You may edit this
file if you want to resize the flash partitions. On the other hand, you
may edit the bootldr partitions (see btflash.c).
