>5824 is the usable size of the file system on mtdblock3, i.e. after subtracting the overhead for file system bookkeeping.
By default mtd partitions were like cat /proc/partitions major minor #blocks name 31 0 8192 mtdblock0 31 1 256 mtdblock1 31 2 2048 mtdblock2 31 3 5824 mtdblock3 31 4 64 mtdblock4 mtdblock3 was having 5824 blocks and 5824 blocks were able to use, I think you are missing my point, i have increase size of mtdblock3 but i am unable use whole partion and idk why kindly also inform me how i can change erasesize of a partition On Wednesday, November 20, 2013 1:51 PM, Geert Uytterhoeven <[email protected]> wrote: On Wed, Nov 20, 2013 at 8:59 AM, Suki Buryani <[email protected]> wrote: > 31 3 5884 mtdblock3 5884 is the raw size of mtdblock3. > but when i try to use memory relevant tools, it shows me something like > # df > Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on > /dev/root 5824 5824 0 100% / 5824 is the usable size of the file system on mtdblock3, i.e. after subtracting the overhead for file system bookkeeping.
