The read/write/erase routines for the DiskOnChip hardware don't currently
support reads/writes greater than one page, or erases greater than one
eraseblock. You need to put a simple loop in to read/write multiple pages
and erase multiple blocks when it's asked to do so.
The reason NFTL works OK is because it doesn't ask the hardware driver to
do that.
Using JFFS on NAND flash isn't tested very aggressively yet.
