How does Linux see RFS on NAND Flash?

I can't see how to get Linux to see my RFS on the NAND.  There is code in the kernel "board-dm365-evm.c" that describes the NAND partitions.  But it doesn't look like it's used in any way.  Does anyone know the process of defining partitions on the NAND and telling Linux how to mount one as the RFS?

    Well I finally found my problem.  I'm working on a DM368 board we've created for our product.  We've eliminated some of the components found on the EVM.  The CPLD is one of them.  On the EVM there is a switch used by the CPLD to define whether the NAND is/isn't present.  The section of code in "board-dm365-evm.c" that tells Linux about the presence of the NAND is in the CPLD initialization.  It was a simple matter of moving that section of code out of the CPLD init and now Linux recognizes the NAND on our board.
