For me uSD card never worked as stable rootfs. I always ended up with corrupted filesystem after a couple of days. But for data on FAT it always worked quite good. I guess this is some flaw in Freerunner's hardware or kernel driver. On GTA04 i have rootfs on uSD and no problems at all. I am starting to think that NAND on GTA04 is quite useless - it would be quite cool if it had 2 uSD cards instead (with BTRFS as fs it could rock).
