[U-Boot-Users] Non-block-skipping NAND commands (was: Loading from NAND using 'nboot' Periodically Fails Where 'nand read' Succeeds)

[Stuart Wood]

I would vote for making bad black handling the default. I've been
working on fixing up a design of ours that mistakenly used non block
skipping version and I've been trying to find all the places were bad
block's were not being skipped and fixes them. Our system only uses
NAND flash and people are very concerned about it.
