By the way, why is this ? A chatty JFFS2 usually means that there's
something much more serious amiss.

If you're having ECC problems, you may want to check that your kernel
has the NAND non-word read fix, commit
9bcafb0339e3d3bd1a7b1f765a954c5427e11bce

If it does and you still get lots of errors, then your rootfs image
may have been written with the wrong ECC algorithm. In this case,
you'll get bit corruption (detected by JFFS2 as a CRC error) whenever
you read a block where the difference between the stored and the
calculated ECC suggests a "correctable" single-bit error.

In this case, the only real remedy is to throw away the corrupt
rootfs and to flash a new image, or to completely sidestep the
problem and use a rootfs on microSD instead of NAND.
