No, I don't but I would like to learn more about NAND flash programmers.

It's still not clear from your description what has been done - "I got
access to flash memory" sounds too vague. It's quite possible that SW
you are using does the trick; at least you have some file, loaded from
the host to RAM:
[HOST]
IP 10.0.0.198
FILE PCB82xx120.ep
Where did you get this PCB82xx120.ep file from?
In any rate, FLASH section of this configuration file specifies NOR
flash so it's out of question that BDI2000 could program NAND by itself:
[FLASH]
CHIPTYPE MIRRORX16 ;Flash type: Micron Q-Flash MT28F640J3
Moreover, since workspace is disabled, direct image programming shall be
really slooow - you had to notice that. Did you? Most likely not - SW
burned your flash.
Best regards
