mtd1: Dumping Data Starting at 0x00000000 and ending at 0x00040000*
mtd2: Dumping Data Starting at 0x00000000 and ending at 0x00040000
mtd3: Dumping Data Starting at 0x00000000 and ending at 0x00040000*
mtd4: Dumping Data Starting at 0x00000000 and ending at 0x01b00000*
mtd5: Dumping Data Starting at 0x00000000 and ending at 0x000c0000

I don’t know how much of the Nand you would need to erase for each partition..?

I don't quite understand the question. Those `ending' values suggest the size of each partition given all the `starting' are zero? You need to find out what that first line of information means. I suspect `Size' is the number of pages and `Page Size' is in bytes. That would mean 8 MiB in total.

Depending on the flash device, the smallest erasable amount might be a block of pages.
