4 * Read flash partition table from command line
6 * Copyright 2002 SYSGO Real-Time Solutions GmbH
8 * The format for the command line is as follows:
10 * mtdparts=<mtddef>[;<mtddef]
11 * <mtddef> := <mtd-id>:<partdef>[,<partdef>]
12 * <partdef> := <size>[@offset][<name>][ro]
13 * <mtd-id> := unique name used in mapping driver/device (mtd->name)
14 * <size> := standard linux memsize OR "-" to denote all remaining space
15 * <name> := '(' NAME ')'
17 * Examples:
19 * 1 NOR Flash, with 1 single writable partition:
20 * edb7312-nor:-
22 * 1 NOR Flash with 2 partitions, 1 NAND with one
23 * edb7312-nor:256k(ARMboot)ro,-(root);edb7312-nand:-(home)
