mtdparts question

[ANDY KENNEDY]

Attempting to configure mtdparts from the command line.  The parts are
set statically in the kernel, however, the COMMENT prior to the config
declares that the this is what will happen IF there is no definition on
the command line.

Bootup info shows:

The system has two flash chips, one a NOR and the other a NAND.

Q1:  Can we configure mtdparts from the command line if the definition
is already in arch/mips/<mysys>/platform.c.
Q2:  Is the definition `mtdparts=NAND 128MiB 3,3V
8-bit:256k(hidden),-(root)` correct to do this for the NAND?
Q3:  Can we define partitions for BOTH of these flash on the command
line? (my answer= NO -- am I correct?)

If this has been asked prior, I could not locate it.  Sorry for the
repeat if it has been asked previously.

Thanks,
Andy
