Hi Keerti,
It may be possible that command line partition flag has been enabled, or may in boot loader or in kernel there is command line option is enabled.
Regards,
Ravi

Subject: creating mtd partitions
Dear ALL,
I am using linux kernel 2.6.25,i want to create my mtd partitions,so i had
made entry in the physmap.c as
struct mtd_partition physmap_flash_partitions={
{name:"kernel",size:0x1f0000,offset:0},
{name:"Config",size:0x10000,offset:MTDPART_OFS_APPEND},
{name:"Initrd",size:0x1e0000,offset:MTDPART_OFS_APPEND},
{name:"Redboot",size:0x100000,offset:MTDPART_OFS_APPEND,mask_flags:MTD_WRITABLE}
};
but when i am compiling the kernel,
it is giving me warning physmap_flash_partitions defined but no used.
Here is my boot log

Please can any one help me how to create mtd partitions.
