From: Shiji Yang <yangshij...@qq.com> >From the Netgear u-boot GPL code[1]. Bootloader always unconditionally marks block 768, 1020 - 1023 as bad blocks on each boot. This may lead to conflicts with the OpenWrt nand driver since these blocks may be good blocks. In this case, U-boot will override the oob of these blocks so that break the ubi volume. The system will be damaged after first reboot. To avoid this issue, manually skip these blocks by using "mtd-concat".
