Missing a partiton on factory plug?

[southland]

I know I can't really be missing a partition. However, I'm trying to following the instruction to upgrade the kernel and file system by first booting over nfs as outlined here:

http://plugcomputer.org/plugwiki/index.php/Flashing_an_Operating_System_onto_the_Plug

The boot over nfs works fine, except when I perform the following:

-sh-3.2# cat /proc/mtd
dev:    size   erasesize  name
mtd0: 000c0000 00020000 "uboot"
mtd1: 1ff00000 00020000 "root"
-sh-3.2#

I only see two partitions, however the document link above says you should see three of them named

mtd0: u-boot
mtd1: uImage
mtd2: root

as in this image:

In light of the different in partition instructions displaying a different layout, how should one proceed to update the uImage and rootfs ?

As I explained in another thread (http://www.newit.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,1369.msg5136.html#msg5136), the kernel shows you the partitioning it is told about. You should either patch the kernel or specify the correct partitioning using boot parameters. If you are not going to upgrade u-boot then you should be careful not to overwrite it, for the rest you are free to choose any partitioning you like.

Thanks! Your other post was indeed helpful! After posting my question I had since found the post you refer to and was able to use that to sort out the problem and get it all working. Thanks for the informative post!
