Partition != erase block, not sure how though.

It says Same Partition which will map to Any Address if you only got one partition.

BTW, when we went from 130 to 65 nm parts, bus timing changed to slower and we
had to adjust our chip select logic to match. The 65 nm parts needed some extra
time for the read access. Have you adjusted yours?
