you call it over-optmizied. I call it the only solution that I could come up with, and that is still adhering to the spec of the NAND chip in question. You would have had to have about 1.5MB spare space in each partition in order to account for the possible worst-case but still within vendor spec factory bad block situation. That's a lot of wasted space, something that you cannot afford with 64MByte total size, and probably still don't want to waste with 256MB. > Plan C: accept that sort of palative treatment for u-boot, fully > aware that this makes it terminally unmaintainable. just because you don't like it, it's not unmaintainable. From my observation, u-boot is getting more maintainable (and better maintained) every month. -- - Harald Welte <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://openmoko.org/ ============================================================================ Software for the world's first truly open Free Software mobile phone
