The DiskOnChip is just a clever way of attaching NAND flash chips to a
CPU. Generally it comes with the NAND Flash Translation Layer, which
emulates a block device, on top of which you put a 'normal' filesystem.

You end up with a journalled filesystem on top of what is essentially
already a journalled filesystem, and although we do have GPL'd NFTL
support, it's not 100% reliable yet.
