NAND subsector writing problem

[Alex Samoutin]

Hello,



I've implemented hardware driver for Toshiba TC5818AFT NAND flash . (I took
Jan 27 snapshot of MTD drivers).

When I do write and read using "nandwrite/nanddump" utilities - it is look
like all working fine. However "nandtest" showed me error message during
subsector writing (see log below). Can I use  jffs2 with this type of
problem or I have to fix it? (And may be you know - what can cause this
error?)



Thanks.

Alex.
