You're probably better off asking yaffs questions on the yaffs list: 
http://stoneboat.aleph1.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/yaffs

This is happening because your spare area management is not correct and the 
tags are being messed up. Thiis causes yaffs to think that a page of flash is 
empty, but it is not.
