I updated the mtd drivers as stated on the infradead website. Because 
the API changed I had to make small fixes to my cfi mapping module. Now 
the chip is correctly detected. Both drivers, ie. the old DiskOnChip 
and the new NAND DiskOnChip, work.
For the NAND DiskOnChip driver I had to apply the patch mentioned here:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2004-October/010640.html

Using configured DiskOnChip probe address 0x40000000
DiskOnChip found at 0x40000000

DiskOnChip BNAND Media Header not found.
mtd: Giving out device 5 to DiskOnChip Millennium Plus

What irritates me is the output: 
DiskOnChip BNAND Media Header not found.

Why is that ?
How can I make a first test of the DoC, ie. reading writing reading?
I tried nanddump and nandtest. But no success:

/>nanddump /dev/mtd5 /var/xxx 0 128
MTD_open
MTD_ioctl
Unknown flash (not normalM NAND)
TD_close
pid 29: failed 256

/> nandtest /dev/mtd5
MTD_open
open flash: Permission denied
pid 31: failed 256


Any help apreciated :)
