Or wait until the new NFTL format is understood, and use the M-Sys DFORMAT 5.x 
program format the flash and install GRUB (plus reserve additional binary 
boot partition space if needed for future upgrades of GRUB)

Personally I am not very comfortable with using ntfl_format when even the 
documentation to ntfl_format says you really should be using the DFORMAT tool 
for formatting the flash.
