mmcblkX:

where:

X=0 -means the internal flash (mmc2) : for N800 it's the internal SD card; for N810 it's somewhere inside and we can not access to it unless we disassemble the N810.

X=1 - means the external flash (mmc1),

When we partition the cards; we create the 1st partition for DOS (Xp1) and the 2nd (Xp2) for Unix.
The 2nd could be ext2, or ext3.

So if you didn't know what 1p1 means then now you should know that you just formatted the 1st partition of the external flash.
