Re: Flash : Partition Boundaries

what do u mean by boundry? i guess its multiple filesystems u meant on
diff partitions...it will go until the partition is getting over and
not til the entire flash gets exhausted..

Hi,

Does the flash fs have partition table marks on each boundry?

For eg. take the command : dd if = /dev/zero of = somefile.

Will this stop at the partition boundary or will it keep going until
end of disk is encountered?

Thanks and Regards,
Karthik
