Dear Ran Shalit,

When using the nand, with regards to its implementation in U-boot or linux, does a good strategy would be to map Nand to areas with *space* between the end of one area to the start on another ? It seems a good ideas becuase of the bad block issue and the skipping of bad blocks. I did not find information about the Nand usage.
Your question makes no sense. NAND is not a memory device that could be mapped to some address range - insted,itis a strage device that can be accessed only through some controller interface, similar to the ATA controller on a harddisk.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
