mounting a mtd or a mtblock??

[Artem B. Bityuckiy]

As the first step you may install the last MTD tree from CVS and try it.
Can't help with wrong erasesize issue - I think this should be fixed 
somewhere in the Flash driver level. What does your 'cat /proc/mtd' say?

Read about mtd device files in this FAQ:

Your flash neither contains any right data nor contains all FF. This 
confuses JFFS2. For some reasons flash_eraseall didn't erase your flash 
correctly. I think you should dig your Flash diver.
