Integrating new MTD/jffs2 into 2.4.18 kernel

Hello,

I am running on an ARM platform using the 2.4.18 kernel with 2.4.18-rmk7
patch.  I'm using the MTD NAND flash support, and I'm having problems
running a jffs2 filesystem on a NAND flash device  (not a root
filesystem,
just a writable "scratch" directory).

Using a snapshot from yesterday, I tried to integrate the jffs2 from
the snapshot into my kernel.  But there were a few issues:
- include/linux/crc32.h but expected by the files in fs/jffs2
- zlib.[ch] were not in the jffs2 dir as they were previously

I tried fixing these, but still ended up missing the zlib_deflate*
functions.....

So my question is:   is there a place I can grab the MTD/jffs2 stuff
to drop directly into a 2.4.18-rmk7 kernel?   Or, is there a
procedure somewhere describing how to integrate the latest MTD
from CVS (especially jffs2) into the latest 2.4.x kernel?

Thanks in advance!

Steve
