Looks like there were data on the flash chips before you started. Erase 
them first. There's no utility to erase whole devices, but the 'erase' 
program in the util/ directory will erase a single erase block at a time.

 for a in `seq 0 131072 16777216` ; do mtd/util/erase /dev/mtd0 $a ; done

...or put a loop into the erase program. The MTDGETINFO ioctl should return 
the size of the device.
