I have heard it both ways. If you are trying to read a 256/512 nand some people say use r/w +64 command and others say use r/w +256 or +512 depending on which you have. So which is it?

For 256/512 consoles, you read/write a RAW NAND with

-r64
-w64

as everything after 64MB is just Internal Memory.

ecc files need to written with a rebuilt ecc, so they need

+r64
+w64

EDIT: Blakey got there first - you don't ever need to specify +r/w 256 :)

I am reading a 256 jasper and I'm getting the read error I've been reading about. I am getting some bad blocks. Is this bad or can I proceed as normal so long as the nand reads match.

What are the implications of a bad block? I am getting 250 and 210 error if that matters.

That shouldn't be an issue, error 250 usually means a physical bad block which is fine.

Just read a couple more times and keep doing so until you have at least two matching dumps (0 non-matching blocks found).

I only ask because people are saying to remap it to make it all be good. Doesn't the bad block mean that if I wanted to save a file to the internal 256mb memory, it may be problematic? I am just trying to avoid future problems but like I said I don't know what the implications are.

Ah I see now. So is that recommended and if so is there a tutorial for this? I found a video one but it's hard to see in the video what they are doing. I prefer to use jtag tool.
