Hi, every one. This is my first time of posting a message here, firstly , thanks for any body who builds such a nice platform give help. In recent two weeks, I added a NAND flash driver support for Micron's MT29F2G08ABD (SLC;page size: x8 2048+64bytes; Block size: 64 pages; Device size: 2Gb) memory chip base on u-boot 2009.08 for i.mx25. Block Erasing and Page Programming functions worked properly, but when I do page reading operation, "UnCorrectable RS-ECC Error" error message prompted. I checked the NFC (NAND Flash Controller) spare area buffer and found that the 4th 512-byte spare area buffer's data were very weird, there is not any ECC code that should be generated by the FEC but contained the data what I programmed to the memory. In order to easy to do troubleshooting works, I make a simply testing process, what I do is, firstly, I only erase page 0 of block 0, and later I program the erased page with a 2k file which consisted of 2048 same character 'E', at last I read the page back , but "UnCorrectable RS-ECC Error" occurs. I pasted the contents of NFC's spare area buffer as following:

Contents written in red characters should be ECC code, but changed to what I programmed to the memory in preverious programming process. Any advice, please feel free to tell me. Thanks very much in advance.
