Well, in theory you should wrap your ubifs image with ubinize to get
"raw" contents which should be flashable with the standard nand write

Note however that I did not (yet) test this theory, so keep us posted
how reality relates to it ;)

If you know why this number is perfect - you're probably a mathematician...
