Subject: [PATCH v2 4/7] nanddump: warn about new default BB handling
Date: Tue, 21 Jun 2011 08:46:38 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1308671201-18197-5-git-send-email-computersforpeace@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1308671201-18197-1-git-send-email-computersforpeace@gmail.com>
In an upcoming release, we will no longer default to --bb=padbad. Instead,
the default will be --bb=skipbad. This makes nanddump a better inverse
operation to nandwrite.
This patch prints warnings for users so that they get a chance to update
their scripts before the default changes officially.
