I had a similar problem earlier this week and asked the list. In my case
the reason was that I didn't have enough erase blocks available for the GC
algorithm to be able to do its job. Make sure you have at least 5 erase
blocks available when you create the JFFS2 image.

Did you verify the mount command gets executed during boot? Just add an
echo to the rc script and verify you see its output while rebooting.

Hope this helps.
