Armada-98DX4251 Micron MT29F8G08ABACAWP 1024 MiB 256 KiB 4096 224 This is probably unrelated to this particular fix. It may be as simple as something not catering for the Armada-98DX4251 SoC or a genuine difference between Armada-98DX4251 and Armada-385. 4.16.4 with pxa3xx_nand works with this combination. > --- > > Chris, > > Can you please give this patch a try?
