Yes I want to use jffs2, but the two flash chips have the same block size, i 
will contact mtd-guys if it will work. But concate support is in mtd, when 
things run good jffs2 works with 2 concated flashs chips :-) hopefully

Redboot: I see that I have to test and to look if things could work as I want, 
at the moment I only have a hardware with on flash chip. When I get the 
hardware with two flash devices I come back and tell my experiences, thanks 
for your explanations and help.
