Martin,

By modifying the jffs2 images directly won't we lose the customized tarball and contents file that the XS uses to provide OS updates to XOs?

DSD has a good how to here that illustrates what I mean:

Has this been seen before?

Background: Turns out that using block2mtd, a loop device and some
elbow grease, it is reasonably easy to mount jffs2 images on a normal
linux host. (This is helping me simplify image-builder...)

I saw this before while working with block2mtd on another project and
was basically told not to use it.
