Am I right to say that, I only have to put the fix pattern value -- 
which is cleanMarker in the case of JFFS2
in the OOB?  If this assumption is true, then I was thinking about let 
the erase do the job. Because,
 we can modify erase function such that we can have "erase --jffs2-oob" 
or "erase --yaffs-oob".
On the other hand, we probably can not change cp function to have "cp 
--jffs".
