Hello ysliu !

I have successfully run Samsung's MLC nand flash in my linux board
with yaffs2/mtd , but the performance is low because the nand flash
driver that I wrote didn't support two-plane page program . You can
search this mailing list ,I have asked the tow-plane page program
problem several months ago.

Besides yaffs2/mtd , you can alse purchase the samsung's RFS(Robust
Nandflash filesystem) , RFS supports MLC and its performance is
excellect ( I heard from the samsung's guy but I never use RFS) .
At last, why do u need to support a bare MLC nand flash chip? for
BOM price ? You can just use a SD card in your product, it's simple
but the BOM will raise.
