ubiattach fails with bad VID header offset 2048, expected 512 ???

The is the first thing out of the box. It reads block 0 to get the 
ubi_ec_hdr then parses it.

Our system reads/writes 2048 byte blocks with only 32 bytes available in 
the oob area per block.

For my system, is vid_hdr_offset supposed to be 2048, ie point into the 
oob area?

How do I get it working?

Thanks,
