Hi Guys,

Our Blackfin based system was successfully using MT29F2G08AABWP NAND flash 
and u-boot.
Recently due to the limited availability we decided to migrate to the new 
nand chips from Micron MT29F8G08MAAWC
It uses new technology Multi-Level Cell

However we are still not able to make it working. The capacity, bus width, 
etc are stored in the flash itself.
The u-boot's nand driver however reads the chip ID and recognize this chip 
as 16 bit wide
though from the partnumber it is clear that it is 8 bit device.

Is there someone which know what we need to look at so we make those new 
chips from Micron working with u-boot nand driver.

Thank you for your time!
Dimitar
