[oe] [PATCH 07/14] kexecboot: use custom device table with mmc and event0

[Andrea Adami]

> NACK

I did not want to bloat device_table-minimal too much...
Users were asking for boot from logical partitions so I have to add
the device somehow.
Initially I wanted to add 10 but then I found out:

http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Booting_from_SD

* The device nodes numbering schema provides minor numbers from 1 to 7
(/dev/mmcblk0p1 ... /dev/mmcblk0p7). Minor number 8 is the next
physical device (/dev/mmcblk1). So we're restricted to a maximum of 7
accessible partitions.

Discussing with Yuri we already found an alternative, at least for
kexecboot: parsing '/proc/partitions' in kexecboot code and
dinamically creating the nodes...probably in the next version...
