Adjust the NAND partitioning layout so that there is a separate partition
for the ramdisk and fdt blob on the NAND.

A partition for a ramdisk? maybe initramfs or initrd might be better?

Separate ramdisk (initrd).

So maybe name it 'initrd' in the partition table?

Why bias users against using initramfs instead?

I have nothing against initramfs or any other name, I just think
'ramdisk' is confusing (but it might be just my impression) that's why
I commented in the patch so others can comment on it too.

I'm not biasing users against initramfs, but some users simply want separate
ramdisk outside of the kernel.

initramfs and initrd are different ways of formatting a ramdisk. It's
orthogonal to whether it's separate from the kernel image.

How is an abbreviation for "initial ramdisk" less confusing than
"ramdisk"?

True, so what is the discussion here about anyway? I fail to see the point -- is
there a problem with the patch or not? If not, please apply for .01 release.

I have no problem with it. My point was that "ramdisk" is a better
name than "initrd".

Sigh... I said I have no problem with the patch. I was responding to
Otavio's suggestion to change it to initrd.
