Hello Everyone,
I just started using CE5.0 PlatformBuilder and have a problem trying to get
the internal flash disk partitioned, formatted and mounted automatically when
it boots up. I'm using a Samsung S3C2440A based board with K9F1208 nand flash
and I can use the storage manager in the control panel to format/mount with
no problem. As my final target device will not have a LCD, I need to
automatically check/format/mount the flash disk upon boot.
This is the first time I'm using Platform Builder and I can't seems to get
this working.
Thank you very much for any help/advise.

Here's my platform.reg :

How are creating partition? Boot part library?

Thanks
