Hi Robert,

> I need more than 16 mtd partitions on a omap1610 (arm) with kernel 2.4.20. 
> I create 16 partitions. All ok, 'cat /proc/mtd' show mtd0 to mtd15. 
> I create 17 partitions. 'cat /proc/mtd' show only mtd0 to mtd15. 
> It seems to give a limit with 16 partitions. 
> Where can I change that? can someone help me?

I think this patch fixes that.

Kind regards,
Timo
