NAND fail testing

Is there a simple way (using existing drivers and utilities) to "wear 
out" one byte on a NAND type chip by repeatedly rewriting a single byte 
(single address)?

I want to cause a single byte failure on a chip in order to perform 
tests on erase and write error processing, but I only see how to write a 
'page' of data, not a single address.


Thank you,
