Hi All, Thanks in Advance. Please clarify the following. We are using ARM9 core Samsung controller with NAND Flash & U-Boot bootloader.
è There is a partition mtd1 in NAND containing the environment variables mtd1: 00080000 00020000 "NVRAM" è The size of mtd1 is 512 KB. Basically mtd1 contains 4 Blocks. Each Block is 128KB. è The size of environment variables in 8KB. è But this mtd1 has 4 redundant copies of environment variables . è Block1 contains first copy of environment variables. This occupies only 8KB of Block1. è Similarly Block2, Block3, Block4 each contain a copy of environment variables. I am planning to use fw_printenv & fw_setenv in Linux to access U-Boot variables. Question: Does the below fw_env.config configuration hold good ? fw_env.config # Configuration file for fw_(printenv/saveenv) utility. # Up to two entries are valid, in this case the redundand # environment sector is assumed present. # MTD device name Device offset Env. size Flash sector size /dev/mtd1 0x00000 0x02000 0x20000 /dev/mtd1 0x20000 0x02000 0x20000 /dev/mtd1 0x40000 0x02000 0x20000 /dev/mtd1 0x60000 0x02000 0x20000 Extra Info: MTD1 starts at 768 KiB as shown below.
