[OpenWrt-Devel] different mtd erase size for a specific partion possible?

2010-05-25 Thread Matthias Buecher / Germany
Today I checked out how to access the U-Boot variables of my WRT350N v2 (Orion) from Linux. Installed uboot-envtools and created a fitting /etc/fw_env.config: # WRT350N v2 # MTD device nameDevice offsetEnv. sizeFlash sector size /dev/mtd50x0003c0000x20000x1000

There is already a patch for this in openwrt, so it should work (in theory). Do you use trunk or backfire or something older? 2010/5/25 Matthias Buecher / Germany m...@maddes.net: Today I checked out how to access the U-Boot variables of my WRT350N v2 (Orion) from Linux. Installed

So I can mark the partition with MTD_ERASE_PARTIAL, but I can not see how I can limit erase size to 0x1000 so that only mtd offsets 0x3c000 to 0x3dfff gets erased. The last 128 bytes (0x3ff80 - 3) of the mtd partition on WRT350N v2 are very important and shouldn't be touched. Or should this

It should work out of the box with the patch. It will (should) set the erase size to the right value. 2010/5/26 Matthias Buecher / Germany m...@maddes.net: So I can mark the partition with MTD_ERASE_PARTIAL, but I can not see how I can limit erase size to 0x1000 so that only mtd offsets 0x3c000
