Sounds to me like a physmap_of driver bug. I don't think there is any advantage in changing the partition syntax since concatenated flash will always be used as a single device. It doesn't make any sense to try and span partitions over two nodes. Do additional properties need to be added to describe the concat layout? g. -- Grant Likely, B.Sc., P.Eng.
