Problem with nand flash while booting 2.6.30

[Saurabh Kadekodi]

Hi All,

I am working on a board with pxa320 processor. It has a micron 128 mb
flash. It boots well with kernel 2.6.25, but when booting with 2.6.30,
it somehow cannot detect the nand chip properly.

It shows following messages:

NAND device: Manufacturer ID: 0x00, Chip ID: 0xa1 (Unknown NAND 128MiB
1,8V 8-bit)

While with 2.6.25 it properly detects as a micron flash.

Then later it gives a lot of ECC errors and prints the following messages:

Please can someone guide me as to what maybe wrong. The flash cannot
be corrupt as
2.6.25 boots correctly. Then where am I going wrong?

Thanks in advance,
