First of all if we create the mtd partitions from the comandline (using mtdpart=...) how can we check whether the partitions heve been created? I am using block2mtd for mounting JFFS2 on compact flash. whether i need to create different partitions using fdisk and then emulate each using block2mtd or i should use mtdpart for making partitions on a single mtd block created using block2mtd. which one is the better option? -- Thanks & Regards Nikhil Shirodkar Project Engineer NISG, CDAC
