Yesterday we saw how to map the NOR flash of VStarcam H6837WI camera.
Now we need to create the partitions to it.
We know from original linux kernel log it has 5 partitions:
[ 0.870000] Creating 5 MTD partitions on "NOR flash on ipcam": [ 0.870000] 0x000000000000-0x000000030000 : "ARMboot" [ 0.880000] 0x000000030000-0x0000001a0000 : "Kernel" [ 0.890000] 0x0000001a0000-0x0000005a0000 : "RootFS" [ 0.900000] 0x0000005a0000-0x0000007f0000 : "IpcamFS" [ 0.910000] 0x0000007f0000-0x000000800000 : "param"
Then I need to pass this mtdparts to Linux kernel command line:
mtdparts=physmap-flash.0:192k(ARMboot)ro,1472k(Kernel),4096k(RootFS),2368k(IpcamFS),-(param)
This is my complete bootargs line:
bootargs=mtdparts=physmap-flash.0:192k(ARMboot)ro,1472k(Kernel),4096k(RootFS),2368k(IpcamFS),-(param) mem=20M console=ttyS0,115200n8 init=/sbin/init root=/dev/mtdblock2
Excellent, it can boots to camera Linux file system:
