I was wondering if there is a way to mount a jffs2 image on a system which
has no mtd devices, such as the system I use (Redhat 7.1) to build an
embedded distro.  I am using a 2.4.20 mtd patched kernel, but I get errors
when trying to mount it on mtd devices (since they are not there).  "mount"
tells me to try using "-o /dev/loop0" but that locks the system up.  Thanks!
