Alternative is to have dropbear and rsync installed on n770. Then you can just execute on desktop linux following commands (done as root, with rootfs directory created and n770 dns alias):

# rsync -e ssh -avHx --delete n770:/ rootfs/
# mkfs.jffs2 -r rootfs -o rootfs.temp -e 128 -l -n
# sumtool -i rootfs.temp -o rootfs.jffs2 -e 128KiB -l -n
# rm rootfs.temp

With quick network this can be faster than writing to mmc and can be also synchronised very quickly later when you do some small change.

When I do this with my (working) filesystem, and then flash the n770 with the new rootfs, I get into an infinite reboot cycle. Any thoughts?
