Ashwin,
I appreciate if you can point me further
I successfully compiled u-boot.bin, uImage, system.img, ramdisk.img,
userdata.img for Marvell Littleton. And my MTD partitions look like
this
# cat /proc/mtd
# dev: size erasesize name
# mtd0: 00100000 00020000 "Bootloader"
# mtd1: 00300000 00020000 "kernel"
# mtd2: 00300000 00020000 "recovery"
# mtd3: 00500000 00020000 "cramfs"
# mtd4: 04000000 00020000 "system"
# mtd5: 0a000000 00020000 "userdata"
# mtd6: 00100000 00020000 "cache"
# mtd7: 00080000 00020000 "BBT"
What does the mtd0 ("Bootloader") contain? I appreciate some pointers
of how to port the RFS through SD card or USB. I have successfully
connect my host (Linux-x86) with the target using adb.
Sorry for the repeating questions as I am a newbie. Thank you
