I have since figured this out, but I am puzzled because the /etc/fstab
that comes shipped by default looks like this:
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/mtdblock/1 / jffs2 0 0
Note the "jffs2" in there. I tried yaffs on a lark and of course it
worked.
The booting process must ignore the filesystem type for the root
filesystem in fstab.
