JFFS2 should handle this.

The oops trace is worthless, as it does not show the stack trace in
human readable form (function names decoded) 

Make sure that CONFIG_KALLSYMS is set in your kernel .config file. 

Also information about kernel version and possibly applied MTD/JFFS2
patches is missing.
