一般的嵌入式Linux开发人员是要清晰区分不同器材的作用和名称的。比如系统,内核所有保存在Nand Flash之上,断电后仍然存在,而运行后程序是装入SDRAM或Mobile DDR之类的内存设备运行。
但一般用户不大明白这几个芯片的区别,一般是就用ROM来指Nand Flash,RAM来指SDRAM之类设备。虽然在嵌入式编程,是专门有称作ROM的器材,比如EEPROM。这里就是大家约定俗说法吧。因此这里的Android ROM实际就是指烧录Nand Flash的各种二进制文件。另外,卖数码产品的喜欢把Nand Flash称为内存,SD卡称为外存,所以交流也只好这样了。
从分区表看,

一、手机的分区说明
我的HTC G8信息是 ,注意这里是Android的LINUX内核能看到分区,并不表示Flash上的所有分区,我的理解Hboot和radio分区在toolbox就看不到。

MISC分区
其中misc分区信息第一篇文章有解释:保存设备配置信息:CID (Carrier or Region ID),USB和其它硬件设备配置信息,大约20K的样子。引自 http://blog.chinaunix.net/space.php?uid=20543672&do=blog&id=94411 可能结构是

recovery分区
recovery 分区即恢复分区,在正常分区被破坏后,仍可以进入这一分区进行备份和恢复.我的理解是这个分区保存一个简单的OS或底层软件,在Android的内核被破坏后可以用bootloader从这个分区引导进行操作。
boot 分区
一般的嵌入式Linux的设备中.bootloader,内核,根文件系统被分为三个不同分区。在Android做得比较复杂,从这个手机分区和来看,这里boot分区是把内核和ramdisk file的根文件系统打包在一起了,是编译生成boot.img来烧录的。它有如下格式。
boot header | 1 page |
kernel | n pages |
ramdisk | m pages |
second stage | o pages |

这里的内核tags,应该就是指内核命令行参数,在头文件里有如下注释注明了,bootloader在引导LINUX 内核时,将会把寄存器r2保存tags addr,而在ARM-LINUX定义里 r1是机器码,而r2就是引志命令行参数的偏移量, ** 4. prepare tags at tag_addr. kernel_args[] is ** appended to the kernel commandline in the tags. ** 5. r0 = 0, r1 = MACHINE_TYPE, r2 = tags_addr 而kernel 和ramdisk则是LINUX标准的zImage和zip格式,这里略掉其说明 文件系统分区. Linux必须有一个根文件系统分区,可以为多种格式,这里用的是可读的ramdisk 格式,它启动分隔一部分内存,挂载到/目录下。 然后再用分三个不同权限分区来装载不同子目录.这里二个子目录是 /system ,/userdata 并且内容是完全只读的它将必须用root用户 这种设计结构的出发点是这样考虑,内核和根文件系统的由手机制造商控制,不让用户修改,而且system的分区保存重要的系统命令和框架程序。由官方来升级,对于用户是只读的。而且userdata目录才是用户自行管理的,比如下载的应用。 而启动时最重要的root用户并未对用户公开,应用程序都是用普通用户的如 app_xx这样的帐号来运行。这样可以有效保护/system的程序。 但是第三方的自制rom往往要修改/system的内容,因此刷机时要通过破解方法来取得root用户权限。
system 分区
这里是挂载到/system目录下的分区,是一个yaffs2的文件系统,用普通的adb 命令是无法操作这个目录的。这里有 /system/bin 和 /system/sbin 保存很多系统命令。它是由编译出来的system.img来烧入。
userdata 分区
它也是一个yaffs2文件系统,它将挂载到 /data 目录下, 它是由编译出来的userdata.img来烧入。cache 分区 它也是一个yaffs2文件系统,它将挂载到 /cache 目录下,看一般解释,这里主要用升级的缓存,内容由运行而定.

其它隐藏分区:
HBOOT 这里没有看,保存的bootloader HBOOT,从源码看不是u-boot的变种。 Radio分区 保存是基带芯片的固件代码,Linux不认识其格式,在手机启动时装入特定内存中用于驱动芯片。所有与电信网络交互就是靠它了,一般往往用专用开发环境来开发。 splash分区 这里是启动画面。 SD卡分区 一般默认的是挂载在/sdcard目录,从我的机器看,好象没有挂上。 SD卡扩展分区
它的目录名是 /sd-ext ,它不是一个标准的Android分区,是运行APP2D软件扩展出来分区。目的是为了多扩展一个安装程序空间,这个对于Flash空间(或者说ROM空间)不够,又喜欢安装软件的人是有用应用。
二.各分区详细分析 各个分区的内容,可以用cat命令直接导出,用一般的二进制的软件来分析,我一般用WinHex,并且自己写了几个模板。 导出分区内容,如果用adb 导出,必须有root权限,
