Dear Paul B. Henson,
Let me just preface this reply with the disclaimer that I'm fairly new to embedded development, and it sounds like you know a lot more about what you're talking about than I do ;).

I'm not reading the thread as it -- again -- contains loads of baseless "is broken" and "doesn't work" accusations left and right, sorry. I am CCing Fabio.
The issue with the bad sectors is known. This is because the kobs-ng scans the NAND and fills the DBBT. This is not something that can be done off-line, so the mxsboot can never generate such a image per-se. It can on the other hand generate a bootable image. Note that the mxsboot is by default configured for 2048+64 bps flashes.
Best regards, Marek Vasut
