From d7ebbd0ac7eb6cb5ab017ed3e221e51e15d673e2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hauke Mehrtens Date: Sun, 1 Dec 2013 16:32:32 +0000 Subject: brcm47xx: use "firmware" partition name MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Some time ago, after switching to the mainline bcm47xxpart driver following patch has been applied: commit 03cef8725d2062335ffc3de50fc037b294fd458c Author: hauke Date: Sat Apr 6 22:22:26 2013 +0000 brcm47xx: use old partition names again for kernel 3.8 This fixes sysupgrade. The partition names are used all over the Internet in various howtos. Thank you russell for spotting this problem. I propose to revert this change and make sysupgrade use "firmware" instead. This makes brcm47xx compatible with widely used ar71xx and after all "firmware" sounds like a much better name for... the firmware. This change doesn't affect "sysupgrade" usage, because it never takes a partition name as a parameter. This change only affects users using mtd tool directly. Hopefully there are not many howtos using "mtd" command.
