Yes, it should work fine now.

The solution is to specify a kernel parameter

rootfstype=romfs

When the kernel boots, it loops through every filesystem type that's
compiled in, and asks it to try to mount the root fs.

By default we generally use romfs as the root filesys type.  The error
messages you see are the result of JFFS2 trying, and failing, to mount
the root fs.

Hope this helps,

John
