While the intention of this program was most likely so that any issues would get printed to [[:/shared2/test2/nanderr.log]], it also has the side effect of overwriting most of the earlier factory remnants with this pattern, making factory analysis more difficult.

The program that uses this file copies the file across the NAND using [[:/dev/flash]] and copies it back, allowing bad copies to be identified.
