I got the files out of that .jffs2 by following this guide:

http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Userspace_root_image#Mounting_the_JFFS2_image_on_a_loop_back_.28MTD_RAM.29_device

I definitely agree that a .tar.gz would be much simpler, though. I need
the files from the rootfs because I boot Qtopia off the SD card, not
from internal flash, therefore I have to extract the files into an ext3
partition.

A positive note: I installed Qtopia on my FreeRunner a few hours ago,
and it seems to work really well. Good work, Lorn!
