-				is stored in the spare area of the first page in the block which
-				holds the bad block table. Store a pointer to the pattern  
-				in the pattern field. Further the length of the pattern has to be

-				table information is reduced to the loss of the information about the
-				one worn out block which should be marked bad. The version is stored in

-				For automatic placement some blocks must be reserved for

-				Reserving 4 blocks for mirrored tables should be a reasonable number.

-		Filesystems must be aware of the NAND peculiarities and

-		before erasing it again, are restricted to 1-3 writes, depending on the 
-		manufacturers specifications. This applies similar to the spare area.

-		Therefore NAND aware filesystems must either write in page size chunks
