For my OSK, -e 0x20000 is the correct size; the command I use is
basically the same as you.

If you mount your filesystem as an NFS root rather than an image, then
you can read /proc/mtd, but I would say you are most likely correct in
your erase size.
I am not familiar with scratchbox or maemo, so it is possible your
problem relates to them, but I cannot be sure. Sorry, I probably will
not be of much help here.
