do your NAND devices expose labels you set in /dev/disk/by-label ?
if thats the case it might work to use ubuntu-image with the --workdir
option which keeps the different partition images around in the
specified dir. you could then just grab them from there and flash then
to the respective NAND pratitions.
if the labels are not exposed this will need a bunch of changes in the
code to allow some overrides (i.e. via kernel cmdline options), for
this we will need a wishlist bug as the first step :)
