firmware dump - I dont know partition size (embeded linux, u-boot)












0














I try to dump firmware using UART.(u-boot command such as md.b and tftp)



However, I can't figure out size of firmware and partition size...



The commands available are as follows:
(Unfortunately mtdparts command not supported..)



So, I want to know figure out size of firmware and partition size



?       - alias for 'help'
base - print or set address offset
bootm - boot application image from memory
bootp - boot image via network using BOOTP/TFTP protocol
bootss - boot from snapshot image
cmp - memory compare
cp - memory copy
crc32 - checksum calculation
ddr - ddr training function
ext2load- load binary file from a Ext2 filesystem
ext2ls - list files in a directory (default /)
fatinfo - print information about filesystem
fatload - load binary file from a dos filesystem
fatls - list files in a directory (default /)
getinfo - print hardware information
go - start application at address 'addr'
help - print command description/usage
loadb - load binary file over serial line (kermit mode)
loady - load binary file over serial line (ymodem mode)
loop - infinite loop on address range
md - memory display
mii - MII utility commands
mm - memory modify (auto-incrementing address)
mmc - MMC sub system
mmcinfo - mmcinfo <dev num>-- display MMC info
mtest - simple RAM read/write test
mw - memory write (fill)
nand - NAND sub-system
nboot - boot from NAND device
nm - memory modify (constant address)
ping - send ICMP ECHO_REQUEST to network host
printenv- print environment variables
rarpboot- boot image via network using RARP/TFTP protocol
reset - Perform RESET of the CPU
saveenv - save environment variables to persistent storage
setenv - set environment variables
sf - SPI flash sub-system
tftp - tftp - download or upload image via network using TFTP protocol
usb - USB sub-system
usbboot - boot from USB device
version - print monitor version
