Hello, I have prepared an auto-configuration scritp that allows to create all the partitions needed on my Digi Connect ME 9210: ```auto Nr | Name | Start | Size | Type | FS | Flags ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 0 | U-Boot | 0 | 192 KiB | U-Boot | | fixed 1 | NVRAM | 192 KiB | 128 KiB | NVRAM | | fixed 2 | Kernel | 320 KiB | 1152 KiB | Linux-Kernel | | 3 | RootFS | 1472 KiB | 1 MiB | Filesystem | SQUASHFS | rootfs 4 | UserFS | 2496 KiB | 1600 KiB | Filesystem | JFFS2 | ``` My scritp assumes that by default the system is configured only with U-Boot and NVRAM partitions and it works properly. Recently we have received devices with a different default partition table: ```auto Nr | Name | Start | Size | Type | FS | Flags ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 0 | U-Boot | 0 | 192 KiB | U-Boot | | fixed 1 | NVRAM | 192 KiB | 128 KiB | NVRAM | | fixed 2 | Kernel | 320 KiB | 1280 KiB | Linux-Kernel | | 3 | RootFS | 1600 KiB | 1536 KiB | Filesystem | SQUASHFS | rootfs 4 | UserFS | 3136 KiB | 960 KiB | Filesystem | JFFS2 | ``` Therefore, after the execution of my script the result is: ```auto Nr | Name | Start | Size | Type | FS | Flags ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 0 | U-Boot | 0 | 192 KiB | U-Boot | | fixed 1 | NVRAM | 192 KiB | 128 KiB | NVRAM | | fixed 2 | Kernel | 320 KiB | 1280 KiB | Linux-Kernel | | 3 | RootFS | 1600 KiB | 1536 KiB | Filesystem | SQUASHFS | rootfs 4 | UserFS | 3136 KiB | 960 KiB | Filesystem | JFFS2 | 5 | Kernel | 320 KiB | 1152 KiB | Linux-Kernel | | 6 | RootFS | 1472 KiB | 1 MiB | Filesystem | SQUASHFS | rootfs 7 | UserFS | 2496 KiB | 1600 KiB | Filesystem | JFFS2 | ``` There are two Linux-Kernel partitions, 2 SQUASHFS partitions and 2 JFFS2 partitions. In this situation, my application loaded in JFFS2 partition, seems to work the same. Could it be possible? What can be happen with a wrong partition table as the last described? How can modify the auto-configuration script in order to detect and delete all unwanted partition at the beginning? Below the scritp: ```auto intnvram set partition add name=Kernel chip=0 start=0x50000 size=0x120000 type=Linux-Kernel flag_fixed=0 flag_readonly=0 intnvram set partition add name=RootFS chip=0 start=0x170000 size=0x100000 type=Filesystem flag_fixed=0 flag_readonly=0 flag_fs_type=SQUASHFS flag_fs_root=1 flag_fs_mount_readonly=0 intnvram set partition add name=UserFS chip=0 start=0x270000 size=0x190000 type=Filesystem flag_fixed=0 flag_readonly=0 flag_fs_type=JFFS2 flag_fs_root=0 flag_fs_mount_readonly=0 erase_pt UserFS setenv loadbootsc no update linux update rootfs update userfs tftp userfs.jffs2 setenv bootcmd dboot linux flash setenv start_app /tmp/mnt/UserFS/boot.sh setenv console console=none setenv dhcp on saveenv reset ``` Thanks in advance, Paolo ---
