Yesteday I managed to reproduce the problem using /dev/ram. The first message I 
noticed was

jffs2_get_inode_nodes(): Data CRC failed on node at 0x00050748: Read
0x0b5da171, calculated 0xb1b1dbb

This happened some time after the kernel mounted root. On following reboots this 
message was not displayed but I did get one

jffs2_scan_dirent_node(): Node CRC failed on node at 0x0046a7f0 
read 0xffffffff calculated 0xdec8161b

message. 

As I do mount read only on shutdown I assume this is corruption ?

Cheers

Simon.
