Subject: [PATCH 4/6] nanddump: default to NOT dumping OOB data
Date: Fri, 24 Jun 2011 11:03:12 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1308938594-20486-5-git-send-email-computersforpeace@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1308938594-20486-1-git-send-email-computersforpeace@gmail.com>
Since nandwrite doesn't write OOB data by default, we don't dump OOB data
by default, in order to be a more proper inverse function.
Remove the warnings and change the default.
