Well, that's only working if people stop using nand,onenand,sf,... commands in favor the mtd ones, otherwise they still need mtdparts, unfortunately :-(. I guess a long term goal could be to define aliases between flash specific commands and the generic mtd ones so that we can get rid of cmd/<flashcmd>.c drivers. Regards, Boris
