Thanks Adrian :). Well, there is boot partitions and rpmb partition, and maybe should we have a binding to prevent access to both of them ? Something else came to my mind, when you want to boot on eMMC, do you need to write u-boot in boot partitions or is it written at the logical adress 0 which is what fdisk uses as start ? Because, if this is not usuable but just scanned I can't see why we bother doing it... ?
