Help me: How to support two Msys Diskonchip devices?

        I have meet some problems to deal with Msys Diskonchips. 
I have a task to provide a linux distribution to support some type
machine. In this machine ,there are two 8M Msys diskonchips. But the two
Msys diskonchips is not a whole. I find they are driver C: and Driver D:  
in the MSDOS. This to say ,they will be  treated as two devices by linux.
I have gotten the linux kernel patch and the guide provided by MSYS. 
The guide tells me  how to add the diskonchip driver to the kernel and  how to 
make the flash devices such as fla,fla... . I have done it. 
         Now the problem I are facing with is that I have two Diskonchip devices
in the system. This is to say, I must have a devices "flb" in the /dev/ to
deal with the second Diskonchip device. I have read the guide for several times.
But I can't find a way to make the device "flb". 
        So,could you tell  a way to support two or more Msys Diskonchip devices 
in the Linux system?  It is in the urgent need. 
        I hope I can get help from you. Thanks

I'm sorry, I have no clue how to do that with the drivers that they
provide.

It should just work automatically with the free drivers, though.

The new (about to be released) M-Sys driver will support multiple devices.

   I have downloaded the latest mtd,but the error is still the same,
After "insmod mtdcore.o" and "insmod doc2001.o" ,when I "insmod docprobe.o",
It tell me can't find the driver.
The information in the /var/log/messages like that:

"...modprobe: Cannot locate modules doc2001
>>  .... kernel:Cannot find driver for DiskOnChip Millennium at 0xD8000"

Please run these two commands in the 'mtd/kernel' directory and send me the 
output:

grep '/* $Id:' doc*.c
grep -i docmil_init *.c
