Thanks for the help. I deleted the flash.c and enabled the standard CFI and it seems to have fixed my problem. As per your suggestion I downloaded the latest current version of U-boot ( u-boot-2010.06-rc3) and Iam getting the following error during compilation.

You should not use the Taihu board consifuration, but instead create your own.

This should not happen. Either your tool chain is broken, or there was some problem with your download. Is there any chance that a Windows system was involved, so you have corrupted line endings (\r\n instead of plain \n) ?
