Actually the "newest" devices (circa 2005) use yet another incarnation called
saftl.  I didn't bother trying to support it in the docg4 driver.  IIRC, it
stands for "serial-access flash translation layer", which I think refers to the
fact that pages within a block must be written in sequence.

Mike
