Assume we have a 1GB(8Gb) nand chip: #gpmi-nand:1g@200m(rootfs),100m@0(boot),100m@100m(kernel) I am used to explicitly specify size@offset for all my parts. Obviously I won't define a partition above the device size... somewhat hypothetical discussion here... But your code will stop after creating 'rootfs' (and original code will not create a single partition). Is that what we want? Or do we want to truncate 'rootfs', but still have the valid 'boot' and 'kerner' partitions?
