Details

Dakota

MIBIB is the Multi-Image Boot Information Block, an internal partition located in the mtd2 partition of Dakota models.
It contains partition tables explaining the sizes and offsets of all SBL chunks stored in mtd2.
The label of this partition is originally named 0:MIBIB, which is an invalid article name in Mediawiki.

The MIBIB partition contains 2 enumerated instances of itself. Each instance contans 2 partition tables at 0x800 and 0x1000.
All tables use the ATAGs msm parition table format. The first partition table at 0x800 uses a modified 8-bytes magic.
The second table at 0x1000 uses the original msm parition magic but seems to contain erase block sizes.

A * in the Mod column marks info from Supportdata-Probes, which will always stay incomplete.
A ** in the Mod column marks info from Supportdata2 probes, which by their nature will stay way more incomplete.
A - in the Mod column marks manual research, the Firmware then shows where the item occurs, not the Relation.
