how could I recompile multitool for support on alwinner chips with nand suport? I have hardware with h3 chips and nand memories, the idea would be to get the script.bin, modify it and try to use it with the multitool. Would it be possible to do this?

Anything is possible. I don't know the allwinner boot process in detail, but I guess it is not very dissimilar than rockchip one. Plus I know allwinner always boot from sdcard first, which makes things easier, but NAND support is always tricky because usually you have to resort to vendor kernels.

I don't know what is script.bin, but rather than that, it would be better to have something that uses standard device trees rather than legacy/proprietary things.
