Is there a limitation in Harmattan (possibly also Maemo) about the maximum number of possible/recognized devices/partitions of mmcblk0?
I have repartitioned my N9's mmcblk0 to hold
p1 MyDocs 39GB
p2 rootfs 4GB
p3 home 4GB
and
p4 extended 16GB
with
p5 empty 4GB (not yet decided)
p6 Linux 4GB
p7 Linux/ext4 4GB
p8 Linux 2GB
p9 Linux 2GB
sfdisk tells me everything is fine (as above).
But listing
ls /dev/mmcblk0*
only shows me 8 devices
mmcblk0
mmcbk0p1
...
mmcblk0p7
So there seems to be a limit of 8 devices?
I have formatted /dev/mmcblk0p7 as ext4 and can mount it (size: 4GB).
But it seems, I cannot access p8 and p9 this way ...
Someone to confirm? Or help me out?
