I've seen the MTD stuff also passed in as command line arguments for
Linux.

: Example hints file also in attachment.
: In this example one of partitions (0x00040000-0x003e0000) split by keyword '--PaCkImGs--' into two partitions ("kernel" and
: "roots")
: Others think things will be clear from the file itself.

This seems a little weird to me...  Must be something I'm not getting
about this syntax.  Are the characters '-' '-' 'P' 'a' 'C' 'k' 'I' 'm'
'G' 's' '-' '-' at the start of one of the partitions?
