MTD - NAND (Micron MT29F16G08)

[Ken Chan]

Hi,
I am trying to get my NAND Flash (Micron MT29F16G08 -- 2 GBytes NAND) going.
Based on the data sheet, the page size is 4KB, the Spare area size (i.e.
OOB) is 218 Bytes, the Block size is 512KB.
I am using Linux Kernel 2.6.16 and it does not support this NAND Flash
because of the OOB is 218 Bytes.
I checked the Linux Kernel (2.6.24) and same thing applied.

Here are my questions:
1) How can I build a data structure "struct nand_oobinfo nand_oob_218"?
What shall I put for those eccpos[]?
2) If I don't want to create that new data structure, what is the
alternative method to bring up that NAND Flash?
3) Do anyone have similar problem using that kind of NAND Flash?

Thanks
