We added support for handling bad blocks to RedBoot a while back.  If you 
look in ftp://ftp.embeddedarm.com/images/redboot you should find the redboot 
image you need.  If you have an older board with 512 byte blocks you will 
want to look for something like "ts7250-128-kernel-ts11" while if you have a 
newer 2k byte block size you will want a filename containing "nand2k" 
(though in this case you should have a new enough version to not need to 
download it...)
