Ok, thanks for the reassurance. Since we have other (non-ubifs) binary
hunks that also need to have this done, it's easier for me to just write
a single program that stuffs the 64 byte OOBs into all of them.
Just by the way, we were using jffs2 before. UBIFS is quite an
improvement!
Thanks again for your help,
