just for clearness: is the boot - partition different from the rootfs ?
and how are the other partitions ?

/dev/mtd0 is the 2 MB NOR flash that contains the NOR bootloader

/dev/mtd1 - mtd6 are the 256 MB NAND flash, the names and sizes are
shown when the kernel boots (check "dmesg | more" after boot) and they
contain:

- u-boot or Qi
- u-boot environment
- kernel
- splash image shown directly after power on
- factory settings
- rootfs

my question was thougt as: do the other partitions also have to be erased ?

on the mounted rootfs (/dev/mtdblock6) i am writing just normal without erasing, thats why i am stating this question.

and what is then the difference between /dev/mtd6 and /dev/mtdblock6 ?
