#17316: WNDR4300 - remove mtd11 (reserved partition)
--------------------------+-----------------------------------
Reporter: rsriram22 | Owner: developers
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: kernel | Version: Barrier Breaker 14.07
Resolution: | Keywords: mtd11 WNDR4300 NAND
--------------------------+-----------------------------------
Comment (by skyblaster):
In 14.07, block-mount fails to mount a USB ext4 partition as /overlay. I'm
guessing this is due to UBI since it works fine if mounted at /mnt/sda1.
As such, I too would love to see the extra NAND space usable by default.
On a newly purchased unit, I can confirm that this jffs2 block contains a
single /apps folder void of any files, so utilizing it shouldn't be a
problem.
For completeness of the ticket I found the following patch which appears
to be the same as the earlier forum post.
