Hi, As a part of our NAND Flash Framework project we would like to add a new geom class which allows to divide NAND Flash chip into partitions. Nand is divided into partitions based on data in dts file. The purpose of having this geom class is to separate part of nand chip device which might contain some crucial data like u-boot image, parameters, etc. into separate devices and use the rest of nand to store user data. Patch can be found at: http://people.freebsd.org/~gber/patches/slicer.patch it contains geom flashmap code along with changes in FDT area and changes in DTS file for SheevaPlug. Please let me know if you have any comments or objections. thanks, grzesiek
