hi bhodi,
in your install instructions you write:

>4. Be sure there is no bad block in the first 2M of your NAND (check dmesg for bad block 0 to 16). This is very important, if >there is bad block in the first 2M, don't flash u-boot, because you will almost certainly brick your box. Please post your >question here (there is a work around for it).

and:

>13. For sanity check, print out uBoot envs to see if they were flashed OK. If there is error in listing the envs, do not reboot and >post your problem here.

are these workarounds already discussed? if yes, where?
how can i remap or exclude such bad blocks? or how is it solved?

tnx
jay
