152 II. NAND partition table
154 All the board support boot from NAND flash will use the following NAND
157 0x00000000 - 0x0003FFFF bootstrap (256 KiB)
158 0x00040000 - 0x000BFFFF u-boot (512 KiB)

160 0x00100000 - 0x0013FFFF env_redundant (256 KiB)
161 0x00140000 - 0x0017FFFF spare (256 KiB)
162 0x00180000 - 0x001FFFFF dtb (512 KiB)
163 0x00200000 - 0x007FFFFF kernel (6 MiB)
164 0x00800000 - 0xxxxxxxxx rootfs (All left)
166 III. Watchdog support
168 For security reasons, the at91 watchdog is running at boot time and,
169 if deactivated, cannot be used anymore.
170 If you want to use the watchdog, you will need to keep it running in
171 your code (make sure not to disable it in AT91Bootstrap for instance).
173 In the U-Boot configuration, the AT91 watchdog support is enabled using
174 the CONFIG_AT91SAM9_WATCHDOG and CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG options.
