  25. RedBoot is a ROM monitor and bootloader which deals with multiple

  143. Although most flash chips have an erase size too large to be useful

  148. System(s) to obtain a handle on the MTD device when it's mounted

  150. of the mtdblock device).
  151. Later, it may be extended to perform read/erase/modify/write cycles
