I should perhaps have said "provided there are no bad blocks on the part of the nand occupied by the squashfs", and "provided that ubox mount_root is patched so that it distinguishes between jffs2 on nor and jffs2 on nand". But I suspect I shouldn't really be using a squashfs image on nand at all. I'd also be interested to know if anything is planned along the lines of what David mentioned.
