Dear forum!

One of the problems turn to you is that, that last month I bought an A20 android developer motherboard which I installed (I installed it on the SD card)!
I would like to mount the system partition, but unfortunately I can't.
My question is, how can I reach all the partitions?

To help you I attached the fdisk output!

Most of the Android partitions use YAFFS2 filesystem (a special fs designed for FLASH memories), which is not supported by defaoul on most Linux distribution. So you need either a kernel with YAFFS2 support (from some Android or custom-made) or use some tools to extract files from the filesystem, see http://code.google.com/p/yaffs2utils/.
