For my specific platform, the file is arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-d500.c. Hopefully, you have a similar file (i.e. board-xxx.c).

I...Thanks !!! a nice post on rerely explained area.<br />I've a basic question on mtdparts. I use a mini2440 with 128MB Nand. u-boot once loaded always show 4 partitions: Uboot, env, kernel and root. <br /><br />I am at loss as to who has provided me with these partitions? Is it the U-boot who is "creating these partitions" ? If so where in source code ?<br />If you could explain more it'll be great.<br /><br />Cheers<br />RohitRohithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07224838909468409203noreply@blogger.com
