Please keep discussion on ML

you can try what worked for GNUtoo
13:35 < GNUtoo> JaMa|Wrk, ubifs+om-gta02+nand-scrub works
13:35 < GNUtoo> using dfu-utils
...
13:41 < JaMa|Wrk> GNUtoo: -scrub?
13:42 < JaMa|Wrk> UBI handles flash bit-flips
13:42 < JaMa|Wrk> Scrubbing, by moving data from physical eraseblocks which 
have bit-flips to other physical eraseblocks.
13:42 < JaMa|Wrk> Scrubbing is done transparently in background and is hidden 
from upper layers.
13:44 < JaMa|Wrk> so it's related to ECC we maybe (I don't remember) enabled in 
kernel config?
13:45 < JaMa|Wrk> 
http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/openmoko-kernel/2010-November/011276.html
...
16:27 < GNUtoo> I did nand scrub as described on the wiki
16:27 < GNUtoo> and now it works
16:27 < GNUtoo> no idea of the exact cause
16:28 < GNUtoo> but I already tried mtd utils 1.3 like that
16:28 < GNUtoo> I rm-ed the more recent mtd-utils
16:28 < GNUtoo> I bitbaken an image
16:28 < GNUtoo> it rebuilt mtd-utils
16:28 < JaMa|Wrk> this wiki? http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/NAND_bad_blocks
16:28 < GNUtoo> and built the image
16:28 < GNUtoo> yes
16:28 < GNUtoo> and it didn't work
16:28 < GNUtoo> then today I tried nand scrub
16:28 < GNUtoo> and it worked with the last SHR image
16:28 < GNUtoo> http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/NAND_bad_blocks#Clearing_BadBlocks
16:29 < JaMa|Wrk> with u-boot from NOR, right?
16:29 < GNUtoo> yes
16:29 < GNUtoo> basically I did that:
16:29 < GNUtoo> *boot on NOR uboot
16:29 < JaMa|Wrk> interesting
16:29 < GNUtoo> *run the wiki commands
16:30 < GNUtoo> *power off
16:30 < GNUtoo> *power on to NOR uboot again
16:30 < GNUtoo> *flash QI
16:30 < GNUtoo> *flash uImage
16:30 < GNUtoo> *flash rootfs
16:30 < GNUtoo> and reboot
16:30 < GNUtoo> note that I didn't run theses commands:
16:30 < GNUtoo> dynenv set u-boot_env
16:30 < GNUtoo> saveenv
16:30 < GNUtoo> because they were useless
16:30 < GNUtoo> since I used QI

there were mtd-utils update patches sent to oe ML this week, but our buildhost 
is doing 
rebuild from scratch right now so it will take at least a week before new 
images with 
those patches are created..
