I can't remember if I posted about this at the time, but what I ended up doing was propagating the subpage start offset and length through to all the write_page() functions. At the appropriate place the ECC for any "unwritten" subpages is FF'd out. It's a fairly ugly platform-specific hack but it works, if anyone wants to see it I can dig out the patch. -- Jon Povey jon.po...@racelogic.co.uk Racelogic is a limited company registered in England.
