Hi! geom_redboot and geom_map ( http://my.ddteam.net/hg/BASE/file/783974ced979/head/sys/geom/geom_map.c - based on redboot) Do same things: allow access to memory blocks on cfi/spi flash like partitions on disk. Redboot - Flash Image System (FIS), stored on flash Map - like linux MTD, blocks (partitions) table hardcoded via "hints" I can merge them together into one geom. geom_flash, for example. Addition build flags may be: GEOM_FLASH_NO_REDBOOT GEOM_FLASH_NO_MAP If redboot and map not excluded, then first node will see hardcoded in hints, then try to read FIS from flash. I need your opinions, suggestions and help with testing and including code to main stream source tree. PS: I can test only "map" part on my Agestar LB2. -- Rozhuk Ivanhome | help
