Hi Miquel,

I also had a hard time understanding your email.
It was quite misleading.

Do I need to resend this again?
Looks like no matter what I do it’s always wrong...

In this case next will be 6 (which is the first ECC byte).
However, for small page NANDs byte 5 is reserved for BBT, so we want next to be 5 only in this case.
