JFFS2 as rootfs on DataFlash

[Mangesh Edake <m_edake@yahoo.com>]

Hello all,

I am using atmel dataflash (AT45DB321D) to store the
jffs2 image which is a rootfs. I am downloading the
image to SDRAM and then writing this image to
dataflash using uboot copy (cp) command like this,
u-boot# cp 21000000 14a000 192000

Once I boot the system, jffs2 is mounted as rootfs but
then I continuously get the "Node header CRC failed"
messages and then finally kernel panic with no init
found. 

I'm using mkfs.jffs2 to create an image like,
mkfs.jffs2 -p -l -e 0x2100 -s 0x210 -n -d
/home/me/rootdir -o jffs2.img

I am totally lost and cannot figure out the reason for
the errors. I'd appericiate if anybody help to find
out the reason. 

Following is the ouput LOG.
