UBIFS Error

[JerinJacob]

Well, we still have many UBI/UBIFS patches in the ubifs-v2.6.30
tree and you are always encouraged to update:
http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/doc/ubifs.html#L_source

However, it does not look like we have any thing which would be
related to your problem.

Also, please, describe your flash. It looks like you have a
large NAND flash, is it SLC?

>>> Yes it is SLC and the part number is NAND08gw3b2a(ST Micro electronics).

>>>Size of the Nand Flash is 1GiB

And finally, could you please try to reproduce this problem with
nandsim:

>>> I haven't tried yet.I Will try and update the result.
