Ok, thank you, that looks much better.
When I load this filesystem to the flashdevice with the 128k sectors
I get now only one type of error messages:

jffs2_scan_empty(): Empty block at 0x0000fffc ends at 0x00010000 (with
0x1985e002)! Marking dirty

Is it save to ignore these errors?

Thanks again
Stefan
