Yes, I'm aware of that --- I am using dd for testing on my embedded
system, but when I do the actual manufacturing I will be using a
programmer which knows how to deal with bad blocks.

And after I tried the dd test, I checked the partition for bad blocks
and it has none. So I know that bad blocks aren't the reason the dd
test didn't work.
