Hi,
the dataflash driver contains a hard-coded partition table which might suit one particular board (which I doubt, however) but certainly isn't generally applicable.
Furthermore, it write-protects the first two partitions, which violates the U-Boot standard of allowing the user enough rope to shoot himself in the foot.
Besides, the dataflash partitions aren't even on sector boundaries (the dataflash chips have rather unusual sector sizes; 528 or 1056 bytes, which makes one wonder what the folks at Atmel are smoking).
The patch below places the entire dataflash in one (writable) partition.
Cheers Anders
