In the video, I can see the boot partition is still in the micro SD card (/dev/mmcblk0p1), but the rootfs has been moved to the NAND flash (/dev/mtd).
Is it possible to move the boot partition to the NAND flash too?

I maybe wrong but the instructions merges the two partitions in one single ubifs and boot from nand.

Copy code

ubifsload ${initrd_addr} "/boot/uInitrd"
ubifsload ${kernel_addr} "/boot/zImage"
ubifsload ${modem_addr} "/boot/modem.bin"

surfero75,

I"ve installed your Opi2GIoTNANDflash.tar.gz package and it works great!
Thank you so much!

I need to build and add an extra kernel module (v4l2loopback)
Could you please provide a reference or tarball of your kernel build environment?

You can use a tool that i have made for simply make kernel, modules, u-boot, etc:
