Embedded flash memory issue with Linux 2.6.10 kernel....

I'm using the 2.6.10 kernel on a custom circuit board based on
Freescales MCF5485evb evaluation board. My board has different flash
memory than the evaluation board and so requires different flash
drivers than the BSP that was provided with the board.

The flash memory I am using is the Intel P33 (256P33B) NOR flash. I
have two chips with the chip selects tied to the same logic line. The
chips are on the Flexbus of the Coldfire processor (MCF5484). I'm able
to work with the flash fine in the boot loader (Colilo) after porting
the driver template from Intel into it. My question is how do I
configure MTD to work with this. I've set the beginning address and
the size. This is CFI complient flash. I've set a chip interleave of 2
with a 32 bit bus. As the kernel is booting I keep getting the
message:

======================================================

My root file system is NFS mounted (I'm trying to get it on the flash)
so it will continue on
and boot. I can look at /proc/mtd and it shows the two areas listed
above. However if I try
to mount the mtdblock device the mounting fails. The  "gen_probe: No
supported Vendor Command Set found" message is obviously critical but
with this being a CFI device how
can that be? Is it because the chip selects are tied together?

Kinda stuck here. Any help/suggestions much appreciated!!
