    Tile on to chipboard floorboards

    I need to tile a small entrance way to a hall (small being 1.5m^2). The floor is a suspended chipboard (new). I understand I need to use flexible adhesive. Do I need to prime the floor? If so, any particular primer? Any other tips would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
