Vijay,

I'm not sure if you can use NAND flashes with different page sizes at the same 
time.  I'm not an expert on that area so I just don't know.  Perhaps someone 
else here does.

As for the spare bytes region I'm guessing that you will need to do change the 
driver code to handle a different layout if you want to read factory bad 
blocks.  If not then you should be able to use the default layout and let the 
nand driver write the bad block table for you.  I would consult the NAND chip 
data sheet to see what it requires for the OOB data.
