RE: cfi probe for two different flash devices

In fact is was so easy that I went from knowing of the existence of the
MTD subsystem to booting a Linux kernel and file-system on a custom map
in 2 days. You MTD guys have done a fantastic job.

Rod Boyce.

PS sorry for the wasted channel space but I had to say something.

This question would be best asked of the MTD folks (cc'd), but I
think you'll need a customized "map" function that recognizes these
two FLASH device types and creates the appropriate MTD sub-devices
appropriately.

What Gary said.

If you poke around in drivers/mtd/maps you'll find useful examples of
such, including how to concatenate them together into one logical MTD
device and have a file system spanning them both, etc.
