-   nand read addr ofs size
+   nand read addr ofs|partition size
       Read `size' bytes from `ofs' in NAND flash to `addr'. If a page
       cannot be read because it is marked bad or an uncorrectable data
       error is found the command stops with an error.
 
-   nand read.jffs2 addr ofs size
+   nand read.jffs2 addr ofs|partition size
       Like `read', but the data for blocks that are marked bad is read as
       0xff. This gives a readable JFFS2 image that can be processed by
       the JFFS2 commands such as ls and fsload.
 
-   nand read.oob addr ofs size
+   nand read.oob addr ofs|partition size
       Read `size' bytes from the out-of-band data area corresponding to
       `ofs' in NAND flash to `addr'. This is limited to the 16 bytes of
       data for one 512-byte page or 2 256-byte pages. There is no check
       for bad blocks or ECC errors.
 
-   nand write addr ofs size

       Write `size' bytes from `addr' to `ofs' in NAND flash. If a page
