No, barebox should copy (or move) the partition nodes to where Linux
finds them before starting the kernel. This is not yet implemented
though.

Another option of course is to do the obvious and put the partitions
under the mtd device in the first place. I decided against this since
I have the strong feeling that the hardware description should be
separated from clearly board (or project or usecase) specific partition
descriptions.
