I got the latest code and one of the problem is fixed now. 

i.e. if I copy a file to jffs partition I can read back the content.

However if I mount partiton, copy a file to it, then unmount it and again
mount it, I don't see the file I copied.

e.g. I do

mount -t jffs /dev/mtdblock4 /tmp/jffs 
cp /etc/inetd.conf /tmp/jffs/inetd.conf

Now I do diff between /etc/inetd.conf and /tmp/jffs/inetd.conf both are
same files

Now I do umount and re-mount 
i.e.
umount jffs /dev/mtdblock4 
mount -t jffs /dev/mtdblock4 /tmp/jffs 

Now when I try to do ls -l /tmp/jffs I don't see the file I had copied earlier,
anybody seen this?

Thanks.
