Use the new diskonchip driver in drivers/mtd/nand. The old drivers are
DEPRECATED (See Kernel config) and will be removed in the near future.

None of those ID's is a valid chip ID except the 0x36, which is a
64MiB,1.8V chip. I doubt, that there are DoC's available with 1.8V
supply. The stuff looks more like random nonsense.

Use a recent 2.6 kernel with the new diskonchip driver. We don't know
which kernel modifications are on the Knoppix CD, so please use a kernel
>= V2.6.8.1 from kernel.org and if the problems persist the latest MTD
patches from the MTD website.
