[U-Boot] [PATCH 03/17] Add a command to read raw blocks from a partition

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Sat Nov 3 01:27:19 CET 2012


From: Kenneth Waters <kwaters at chromium.org>

Sometimes data is on a block device and within a partition, but not in a
particular filesystem.

This commands permits reading raw data from a partition.
