Where is /dev/mtdX on Linux-3.8.0-rc7+
Hi, All It seems "MTD partitioning support" CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS has been deleted some time ago, at least not exist on Linux-3.8.0-rc7+. And there is no /dev/mtdx neither, so how do I make it happen? thanks in advance! -- 八百里秦川尘土飞扬,三千万老陕齐吼秦腔。 --bill
Hi Bill, I had a look at the following patchs. http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.commits.head/303418 http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2011-May/035368.html http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.mtd/35293 I think the only way to define different partition layout is to pass it as command line argument to kernel. Refer this for mtdparts argument description. https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/tree/dr... I am thinking that the device file /dev/mtdx will be present since the char diver code is still existing in the kernel mainline.(line no 1254) https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/tree/dr...
