I'd be reluctant to talk to you if it was 2.4.18 you were using. 2.2.18 is just too old. Someone did work on backporting JFFS2 to the 2.2 kernel a couple of years ago. If I recall correctly, last time I asked, he'd abandoned the effort since it no longer made any sense to be using 2.2. Update your kernel. -- dwmw2
